Medium intensity lemon. Aromas of lime, lemon, cream, honey, kerosene and very slight herbal grassy notes with touches of wet stone. In the mouth there is a slight spritz and the wine lacks acidity. It is dry with some phenolic grip on the tongue and finishes short with slight flavours of lime, honey and dusty notes. Oh dear. How sad. Such a promising nose and such a let down in the mouth

Nose: Bit stinky, burnt rubber that took an age to dissipate but then revealed standard kerosene and a little lime. Mouth: very low levels of, again, lime and other citrus and touches of honey that were dominated by burnt toast. Hmm, not the best in the world, hope the other two are a bit better.

A little better than the last bottle but nothing special. Was expecting a lot more from this wine.

Non-descript. Showed varietal characters with tinge of kerosene and a touch of sweetness but not much else. Finish was quite short - disappointing.
