White flowers, green apples, pineapple, vanilla beans, lemon chiffon, pears, and orange blossoms fill the nose. On the palate, the wine is perfectly balanced between its wealth of perfectly ripe, sweet, opulent fruits, and its racy acidities. The lingering finish is all about its purity in the lemon edged fruits, crushed rocks and stones and edgy textures. The wine blends 90% Sauvignon Blanc, 5% Sauvignon Gris and 5% Semillon. Drink from 2024-2040.

Amsterdam UGCB Tasting (Zuiderkerk): Energetic and ripe, lots of interest here, peach and tropical fruits, just visible oak, minerality and crisp acidity, convincing finish. Top notch.

UGCB tasting-Amsterdam 2021 Bordeaux 03-04-2024: A firm push of vanille and wood, but for me the wine misses the concentration to support this equally with fruit and concentration; the acidity is a bit harsh.

UGCB Amsterdam, walkaround tasting so just short notes.: Ripe yellow and white fruits, beautiful oak, good acidity and a fairly firm amount of sweetness. But overall certainly a very beautiful wine.

UGC. Very oxidative style, oak, vanilla on palate. Less intense than Pape Clement.
