<p><b>90 points</b> - Deep golden colour. Slightly sweet and honey palate - nicely developed. Will probably gain more buttery complexity with another 2-3 years of age. Great food wine.</p><p>Tasted on Sat, Aug 28, 2021.</p>

<p><b>91 points</b> - Opulent and powerful. Lacking some of the buttery flavours I might have expected, so maybe this still has years of life in it. Very enjoyable.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Sep 1, 2019.</p>

<p><b>94 points</b> - Matchstick. Musty nose. More body than the Rusden. superb balance. Lemon and minerals.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, Mar 6, 2018.</p>

<p><b>90 points</b> - Complex floral flavours. Almost like a Sake. Not as good as other vintages of this wine I have had, but still a very fine wine. Drinking well now. A lovely alternative to the mainstream.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Feb 4, 2018.</p>

<p><b>92 points</b> - Nutty character on the nose. Concentrated flavour on the palate, slightly syrupy, honeyed, malty tones. Very nice for a chenin blanc, fine acidity provides a good backbone and structure.</p><p>Tasted on Sat, Jan 10, 2015.</p>

<p><b>87 points</b> - Steely Apple is what comes to mind on the nose. Minerals. Creamy with hints of nougat and talcum. Nutty. Holds together well even at warm temperature. Quite interesting. I suspect it will improve greatly with age.</p><p>Tasted on Sat, Jan 10, 2015.</p>

<p><b>86 points</b> - Yellow. It's quite tidy, but I would have expected more apples in there. But really, too young to be drinking it now. We like this wine so much we've bought a case, so it will be good to see how it goes over the next few years.</p><p>Tasted on Fri, Apr 11, 2014.</p>

<p><b>89 points</b> - As expected, another year has improved this wine, with its youthful apples flavours slowly being replaced with notes of honey. It's definitely a little yellower, and may also be slightly more viscous too. This wine remains a favourite.</p><p>Tasted on Mon, Oct 15, 2012.</p>

<p><b>88 points</b> - Light yellow, very aromatic - apples! and in the mouth full and soft with a slight end of bitterness. Drinking well now, but likely to get even better with age as the previous vintages have.</p><p>Tasted on Thu, Aug 4, 2011.</p>

<p><b>90 points</b> - Another year in the bottle only improves this wine. The apples remain, but are now underlaid with a sort of honeyed intensity of flavour, without excess sweetness. Very, very good.</p><p>Tasted on Wed, Jan 12, 2011.</p>
