This was well past it’s best, according to this website it was past its best by 10 years. Colour: mid yellow and quite translucent - there was hope here Nose: acidic and musty. Some hint of fruit. Taste. Acidic and fuel like. More like apple vinegar. Couldn’t finish a small glass so down the sink it all went ! My fault for not drinking it earlier

Decent enough village wine, barn house and forest floor notes, wet earth. Nice drinking but the fruit has faded away. A little over the hill, though nice acidic backbone and concentration.

A pleasant village wine, deep colour good nose and despite what some reviewers say it has a long life ahead and will improve

PnP. Strågul. Epler, flint og noe smørfedme i nesen. Frisk syre og karamellsukkertøy i munnen, godt balansert. Mineraler og sitrus i avslutningen. God lengde. Ypperlig til kremet fiskesuppe. Drikk nå - 2018.

Straw yellow verging on a light gold. Still plenty of good citrus fruit. Full and slightly unctuous in the mouth with a long buttery finish. Some real weight to it and was a good match to a woodpigeon / chorizo dish.

Strågul. Nese dominert av smør, karamell og kalk. Munnfølelsen har også en del smør, men med en mineralsk ryggrad samt noe gul frukt. Kalkstein og sitrus i avslutningen. God lengde. Til bakt kveite med syrlig smørsaus var dette en god match. Drikk nå - 2017

Denne har hatt godt av 1 års modning til da fatpreget nå er bedre integrert. Fortsatt mineralsk og gul frukt. Litt smørbukk, men var verre i fjor. Meget god vin til prisen. Klapper litt sammen etter 7-8 t i åpen flaske, men vil nok holde 3 år til. Ypperlig til tamfulgl med nykål, sopp og kremet morkelsaus.

Drukket rett fra flaske. Strågul. Duft av karamellsukkertøy (Werther's Orginal), smør og litt sitrus. Rik stil. Kjølig frukt. Bra syre og struktur. Mineraler og gule epler på en medium finish. Litt for mye fatpreg for meg. Går godt til lyst kjøtt og ulike fiskeretter. Takler fint fet saus. Drikk nå - 2016.

Fairly textbook white burgundy. Very restrained nose, yellow fruit palate, hint of something buttery / nutty and a slightly spicy finish. Suspect this will have mellowed and be better in a couple of years.

Really very impressive, with a strong citrus foretaste leading to a long, creamy, vanilla finish

Some premox still exists on white burgundies.

Pale yellow, clear. Integrated wood, minerality, elegant yellow fruits. Medium palate, seamless, ripe fruit with a little sweetness. Yellow plums, orange. Medium pluss acidity. Long dry end with acidity and fruit. Complex, balanced, full, fruity and sour. Typical -08 ?

Fresh, a bit young. Clear Chardonnay notes, earthy and still crisp. Fruity, well balanced, feels "big" and with potential for another 4-6 yars storage.
