  Golden color. Delicious floral aromas with apples, mang, honney, wet stone and some petro (diesel). Full bodied and mature in the mouth. The high acidity level adds a balncing freshness to the otherwise quite sweet wine (88 g/l). Good now, but can be stored at least another 10 years.

  Exotic, with lush mango and papaya, honey accents, sweet but with good acids. A bit much for me but well done. B

  This 2011 is irresistibly good. Mineral nose, lime, green apples and honey, on the palate petroleum, layers upon layers of flavour, peach and pear and high acid, perfect for spicy Thai. alcohol 7.5%, acid 9.5 gr/l, sugar 87.7 gr/l. 91p

  I'd echo the comments around cherry, which is something I did not previously find. There is something 'cocktail-like' about the fruit, which has sort of evolved into its own thing, but with that sharp acid and creamy texture. There is a roundness here that feels indulgent and I'm now treating these as cheese wines. Delicious.
