Impressive balance, complexity and weight here - waves of cinnamon, white flowers, nutmeg. This has the richness of the Semillion fruit but right now the Sauvignon Blanc is keeping this fresh and punchy. I'd be inclined to enjoy now before the acidity fades. Impressive.

UCGB tasting Bordeaux 2010 (Brussels): Good and fresh bouquet with pronounced oak. Same on the palate. The oak is not integrated yet and the bitterness is in this stage a bit aggressive. 87-88 now.

From a blend of 85% Semillon and 15% Sauvignon Blanc, the wine offers fresh grapefruit, lemon, spice, lychee nut and mineral scents. Medium bodied and fresh, the wine ends with clean, citrus and spice flavors. The wine was aged in 20% new oak along with a combination of neutral oak and stainless steel vats and reached 14% alcohol. 87-90 Pts
