  Perfect now (Cork was good). The equilibrium is excellent despite the hot vintage, a clear acidic layer gives enough freshness; very expressive, mature fruits, and good volume. A lot of pleasure

  Nice colour, tinged with green. Complex aromatics of smoke, spice, custard apple and ripe peach. It is rich and buttery with good depth of orchard fruit flavours. For its size and weight it has good minerality and a finish that is fresh and vibrant. Absolutely right in the zone, right now.

  A delicious white Bourgogne~ Impressive nose of complex citrus, honey, white flower, nutty, buttery, and yet so deliciously light and impressively long after taste. The taste would last for a good minute of very lively mineral, and match on the palate the above description of aromas. This was served not too cold, almost at rooms temperature coming from a well kept cellar and was just perfect. Wow~ only if I could taste this kind of wine more often!

  Light golden colour; attractive and expressive nose of orchard fruits and white flowers; medium weight, fresh, toasty oak core, pain grille and minerals. Has added depth and complexity over the last year, but not up to it's usual high standard due to the vineyard being hit with a particularly heavy hail storm. Extremely good all the same. One for probably drinking in the short-medium term. Estimated Maturity: 2010-2013+ (459 views)

  Fantastic wine. Clean, pure aromas and tastes. Crisp minerality with citrus notes. Ready to drink.
