Shockingly not bad! I wasn’t expecting much, almost 8 years later, but this showed incredibly well. Lemon and grapefruit, nice texture. I wouldn’t age it any longer, but it made for a lovely hump-day drink.

At chantegrevie. Doesn't lack for freshness on the nose, still grassy and pungent. Touches of honey but they are telling me it stays really fresh and I'd have to agree with that. Showing no color difference.

My last of three. I enjoyed them but Ann didn't like them as they showed quite a bit of grapefruit. Refreshing acidity and more Sauv Blanc character than semillon.

I loved the delicate fruit aroma. Very nice, crisp, near perfect acidity. Excellent 50/50 Sauv. Blanc/Semillon blend.

At Le Noailles in Bordeaux, €25 off the list. No formal note. This was delicious with clean, ripe citrus and grapefruit, decent depth, vibrant acidity and a medium/good length finish. Very good indeed. ***1/2

Great aromatics- lemon-lime, sea Long, slightly waxy, in a good way, finish Restored my faith in affordable, white Bordeaux after a few disappointing bottles

Half Semillon, half Sauvignon Blanc, and with no oak. Mainly white fruits on the nose. Fresh in the mouth with a hint of almond. Moderate finish. Pretty good table wine from 2012. 17年补中文:酒庄的数据显示是长相思赛美容对半,只在不锈钢容器静置。基本上是白桃的香气,很新鲜,收尾有一丢丢坚果味,讲道理可以喝到17年18年,100块价位作为12年的格拉芙干白很好了,嘻嘻。

Bright, zippy and fresh, with a lot of just squeezed grapefruit notes and a hint of vanilla, this drinks well young.

UCGB tasting Bordeaux 2011 (Amsterdam) : Beautifully toasted bouquet and the fruits and citrus can handle it. Good minerals. Crustacean. Approachable. In fact a really nice wine with a good qpr. 88+ for now.

Oaky richness on the nose, big time. Pretty, stony palate with drying oak towards the finish, which falls short. Could have been better. That said, there is an immediate appeal to it that could work for the rather low price point.

Light and fruity, a hint of sweet nectar on the nose (think peach). A bit mineral on the mid-palate. Dry finish with grapefruit. Good value.

Airport and airline lounge wines - BA FC Lounge Heathrow Either this wine is not very good or this was a bad bottle. Slightly musty melon nose. Mustiness carries over into a rather boring palate. I will assume this was a slightly off bottle but it is also possible that it is just not a very good wine.

Union des Grands Crus de Bordeaux 2009 (Metro Toronto Convention Centre, Toronto, ON) : More oak and acid. Not a lot of complexity but there are notes of toast and brioche that are attractive. Not a lot of finesse but nice.
