Delicious, well rounded, great nose, drinking well — at La Spiaggia, Constance Belle Marr, Mauritius — 3 years ago
Fantastic —. Bit of a funky nose at first from the CO2 (it wasn’t decanted) but as it opened up it was delicious, powerful and well balanced — at Blue Penny Cellar, Constance Belle Marr, Mauritius — 3 years ago

Trepidation given the age … should have been decanted but I wanted to see it develop in the glass. Golden-orange colour worried me. First was not good - heavy oxidation, caramels, nutmeg, wood (although nice and buttery). Second glass vanilla, lemon peel, burnt peaches, then it balanced out with fresh apricot and lemon zest. Crazy long apricot jam finish. At this point it became an exceptional wine. Third glass had a lovely nose, rounded and buttery on the palate, notes of orange and cinnamon (?). Fourth glass was perfect, green plums, lovely and crisp with good minerality and balance — at La Spiaggia, Constance Belle Mare, Mauritius — 3 years ago

golden yellow , copper tinge . Quite open exuberant nose , orange rind , honeysuckle, saffron , ginger , marmalade . Intense marmalade , orange peel on the palate , quite rich and intense but well balanced by high acidity. Long balanced , zesty intense finish . Drinking well now and over the next 5-8 years . — 17 days ago
