Interesting Like a cross between Bordeaux and Rhone blanc but lighter than both.Alongside Chateau Louviere 2015 this is less intense, less oaky, more rustic/funky while being totally clean wine.

Fabulous green gold colour. Nose is reminiscent of Bordeaux blanc, but less expressive, no lanolin of aged Semillon (yet).Drinks well, complex, yet remarkably youthful. Lighter than Bordeaux, perhaps like wines of yesteryears (but cleaner).Breathe it, try different temperatures. It’s interesting. 12.8%, screwcap.
Nose: Pronounced with citrus, lemon peel, apricot, honey with a little bit of toast.Dry, medium+ acid, med alcohol, medium+ body, long finishPalate: Orange peel, honey, dried apricot, Balance 1, Length 1, Intensity 1, Complexity 1Outstanding wine. It still has legs and life in it - couple of bottles remaining, but it still has potential for ageing
Slightly golden. I am unable to describe the aromas, but there are so many varied aromas, some oak. Delicious. Went well with a stir fry chicken
Sweetness of the muscadelle, oily and buttery somewhat like a viognier.Delicious
