Fully mature, of course, with a wonderfully inviting brilliant light gold colour. Very fresh on the palate with rich honeyed flavours. Good length. Hugely enjoyable with fried sea bass. Well up to the standard of a good classed growth.

Rich nose, reminiscent of Alsace whites or a sweet wine. Semillon seems dominant here. Moderate to high acidity (or perhaps just in comparison to the other wines open). Dry or very nearly so, with a very rich, slippery mouthfeel. A good wine, but not the greatest match with our Dungeness crab paella tonight.

Gorgeous medium bodied Sauvignon Blanc/Semillon blend. Fuller bodied and richer than a new world Sauvignon, with very forward fruit and minerality, little wood, excellent richness. Decent complexity but this bottle finished shorter than the last, unfortunately, making it very slightly less impressive.

Delicious - light golden color, soft, silky and minerally Sauv Blanc dominated flavors. Great complexity and depth, wonderful balance, much lower acid than new world Sauv... very enjoyable for us.
