Deep golden color clear wine. Medium plus intensity, with tropical fruit (passion fruit mango), ripe stone fruit peachy, white floral (honey suckle), oak treatment displayed in coconut. Dry, medium+ body, medium + acidity, high alcohol. A bit too heady for my taste and lacking some finesse

Quite pale. Pongy, nettly nose. Didn't really change over two days. Just enough fruit on the palate. Not drying out but I don't think this will improve with further keeping.

Excellent and one of the best White Bordeaux’s I’ve drunk. Starts with herbaceous, assertive Sauvignon Blanc aroma’s without the excessive vegetal; nor New Zealand. The oak is in the background; but adding to the overall aromatic complexity and sweetness of the palate. Apparently, 30% from 100 + y.o. Semillon Vines; with the balance as Sauvignon Blanc. Generous acidity and freshness. Yes, it could develop more complexity; but the freshness is amazing for being 4 y.o.

Mine tasted exceptionally oaky, may be due to bottle variation, but I didn't not enjoy this, and poured half the bottle out
