So as this ages this gains body and complexity. Beautiful saline nose with white flower, citrus, and saline mineral notes. On taste amazing intensity and flavour. When I say amazing part of this is the increase in body on this wine. I remember when it was lacy and light when I first tried it. Over time it has evolved to bring more body and flavour. It is too bad that the current releases are so expensive but this was an amazing value wine.

Nose: Initally a bit muted, then lemons, lime and a hint of tropical fruits. Taste: Nice citrus fruit with quite a bit of minerality. Medium rich body. Long aftertaste. Very well made. Surprisingly fresh / young for a 12 year old village wine. Very good quality.

Light golden. Nose: Fresh nose with citrus, some apple and ham. Taste & Palate: Fresh, quite fruity (citrus), medium light body, minerals, clean, quite elegant. Makes a surprisingly young impression.

Quite decent apple/citrus aromatics from the off, which followed through on the palate, joined by quite a vicious acidity. With time this opened out and showed more creaminess. With food it was quite a good companion. The longer it was out of the fridge warming up, the better it became as the creaminess blanketed the searing acidity. Got this at 33% off and value at that price. Not sure about paying full whack.

Nice mineral and citrus nose. Flavors follow-throught with a long mineral finish. Complex for a village wine with upside.
