  Still drinking well, but may be nearing the end of its life. I don't know much about aged white Bordeaux, but I know this one seems to be losing its 'pop'.

  Appearance: Bright and clear, with medium intensity lemon colour, watery rims and legs
  Nose: Clean, with medium (+) intensity and youthful aromas of white flowers like honeysuckle and hawthorn, some herbaceous notes of grass, ample of fruity notes including apple, lime, grapefruit and hints of peach.
  Palate: Dry, with medium (+) acidity and medium alcohol. Medium in body with medium (-) intensity flavors of lime, grapefruit, apple, almond and hints of apricot, with a finish of medium (-) length.
  Conclusion: Good quality mid-priced Bordeaux white with a fruity and fairly intense nose, showing typical Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon characters and refreshing acidity. However, the palate is comparatively weak and only having a fairly short length. Nevertheless still enjoyable and good value for money. Ready to drink now and not intend for further ageing.

  Nice dry white Bordeaux with decent finish - green apple, grapefruit and lime leaf with medium body.
  40% Sauvignon Blanc, 40% Semillion & 20% Muscadelle.
  Great for the price point.
  While certainly a refreshing summer evening option as an apertif as suggested in other notes, it is also robust enough to complement a fall/winter meal of roast chicken, too.
