Pleasant - especially with food -worked well with garlic prawns and pasta. The nose has floral notes and buttery flavours roll round the mouth. some oxidative flavours on finish as other tasters noted so not one to keep. Also worked well with cheese - sufficient acidity to not be overwhelmed

Yellow green color. Green almonds, wet stones, white flowers, minerals and oak. Medium bodied baked apple and pear flavors, crisp acids and nutty overtones. This is at its peak and has a slight oxidative hint in the finish. Drink soon.

Pale yellow gold. Slightly oxidized nose with green nut, mineral and cooked pear aromas. Rich in the mouth with slight rancio flavors, spice and cooked fruits. Acids seem tired. This is not a represntative bottle as the last one a few months ago was fresh, lively and delicious.....

Maybe not as good as last bottle but still very nice - and again better with food
