At home. Brilliant golden yellow. Wow! Really gentle nose, with more banana than grass. Semillon really makes its presence known and mellows this out completely. Same deal on the palate, but add richness and a creamy texture yet with good balance provided by a fine backbone of well-delineated but not overpowering acidity. Full-bodied and even rich, with almost a champagne texture. What you end up with is an elegant wine that would match with anything from fish to chicken. Nice. 5-12-16-7: 90/100.

At home alone over 3 days (notes from day3). Brilliant yellow-gold. Fresh fruit in the nose, not at all grassy or herbaceous. Palate is rich, suave and yet has a fine edge of acidity to keep it all in great balance. Wonderful effort. 5-12-16-7: 90/100.

Balanced, smooth, nice acidity. Apple, a touch of pineapple, and a bit of honeysuckle flower. Clean finish, excellent texture.
