Lovely rich wine. Real depth and concentration. Has that 2005 plushness but decent acidity too. Notes of honey, stone, soft white fruits, citrus. Good length. Plus very good value indeed, aging well. And pleasure of course. Last bottle but still fresh and clean. A tiny bit finer, a bit less rich and voluptuous. Could have gone on longer.

Consistently lovely wine. Colour now mid gold with touch of green. Nose full of honey, limes and white flowers. Lovely balance, decent acidity. Honey and limes, some minerality too. Not a great wine but certainly a very good one and very good QPR.

this wine is delightful. peach and citrus notes and a lingering finish. just lacks a little minerality, but great value

Much as before but perhaps even lovlier. losing even more of the voluptousness and gaining elegance and minerality. Lovely citrus and honey, marzipan and hazlenuts, good length. Clean and long finish. Absolutely superb at the price. Sheer pleasure.

Interesting! Still lovely but the character is changing. Becoming less opulent but gaining focus and complexity now. More citrusy (lemon & lime), honeyed, touch of elderflower, something like almonds too. Great length. Still rich and pleasurable but now more Audrey Hepburn than Sophia Loren.
