  Clear light yellow. Hints of business, old furniture, lemon and white flowers. After a few minutes the fruit comes a bit more to the fore as the ox blows off. Very dry thinning citrus flavours and a dry finish.

  Subtle almond and melon fruit. Solid weight. Mineral driven with none dry finish.

  Pale. Nose is slightly oxidative, pistachio ice cream initially and, as someone else observed, freshly pressed plastic! Slightly fresher and muted after time in glass. On the palate quite rich, medium bodied, crunchy apricot, crab apple, pomegranate and a slight cream soda finish. Interesting wine, complex with lots going on.

  Lovely aged characters starting to appear, nuts and honey, over what is essentially a young, fresh, age worthy wine. Lemon and pear, with touch of apple, line of acid cleaning up. Bottles in this condition have many fine years ahead.

  Decanted for 3 hours. Very interesting nose, dominated by the aroma of freshly pressed plastic, along with some honey, minerals, and pear. More plastic on the oily palate, as well as tart lemon and stewed red apple. Short finish, with medium acidity. Not much depth to this, quite one dimensional. My first time trying this wine, I'm going to have to assume this bottle was flawed based on the notes of others.
