Lemon in colour. See previous Delectable note. Paraffin notes developing. On the palate Barb thought white nectarine notes. Crisp and clean - a beautiful mature Riesling. My last bottle but it could have been left a few more years. Having said that it is hard to see it improving over the standard it is now. An earlier developing style than its sibling Cuvée, Polish Hill. — 2 years ago

Good value. Grapey with aroma. Possibly better value than premium sibling — 4 years ago

Reddish tawny, brighter than the Roumier sibling next to it. Odd nose which had some people guessing Italian. Turns out all this needed (like the 93 Roumier BM next to it) was a lot of air. Notes of bright red fruit, sandalwood and Asian spice came on later in the evening. Has a long life in front of it, but great to compare/contrast this and the Roumier side by side tonight.

Well, we were going to have a party for the senses tonight, so why not have a little vertical tasting. After the excellent 2012 that was so expressive and rich, we turned to the 2017. Wow, much tighter and a strong kick into the shins with vibrant spice. Again, young red flavors of red berries and tangy raspberries drenched in white pepper spice. It did open up more and revealed more of earthy under notes but remained much more single dimensional than its older complex sibling who will be ingrained in our memories for along time. — 3 years ago

The younger sibling of one of my favorite value wines (la bauges), this is much fruitier with a bit less finesse and depth. Loads of strawberries. Still good value. Will probably improve for many years. — 4 years ago

Tasted alongside the Tondonia, the 2007 Viña Bosconia has a near identical profile, and as such it’s very hard to differentiate between the two. After several hours’ air - this took far longer to open up than the Tondonia - it shows generous aromas of dried cherry, blackberry and a green herbal edge that wasn’t a feature of its sibling.

Hard to pick a winner now between the two, but I feel in ten years the Bosconia will have the edge. — 3 years ago

Sibling rivalry. Domaine vs Jean-Marc. Domaine more Meursault, Jean-Marc more exotic and lively. Both are killer — 4 years ago

Beautiful, elegant, lighter sibling for Pomarium. Pairing with takeout Peay-king Duck from Great China to celebrate. — 4 years ago

Black plum, black cherry, extracted. Aromatic. Big, but balanced. Lilac, roses. Thirst quenching. — 5 years ago
