Nicely aged Zind, drinking well already. A blend of 65% Chardonnay and 35% Auxerrois, aged in old oak barrels. Medium golden colour. Intense aroma of peaches, acacia, honeysuckle, stone, ripe yellow apples, melon. Medium body, fresh, vibrant and juicy, saline lemony and peachy flavours hints of ripe apples, zesty high acidity, clean finish.

I think this is still improving, for my taste, in the bottle. Lovely peachy flavours with a light residual sweetness offset by wonderful citric acidity. Laser-like flavours and a great value for money wine.

Rich and residual sweetness so it paired perfectly with a spicy chorizo pasta(!), just powering through the chilli and tomato sauce. I want to say that you should only drink this with food but because of the acidity it does just about work as a sipping wine too.

OK. I officially love this wine with this age on it. Gorgeous balance of fruits, acidity and sweetness. No rush, but drinking beautifully now.

Clean, crisp but without strong character. Needs a few more years to express the depths it has underneath
