On the label it says Vat 18, never heard of it before, it must be a selection. At peak anyway, lanolin, honey little toasty, fruit still there, good freshness. Wine that disappears in no time from the bottle👍

Straw yellow colour.
Toasty nose, lanolin, also toasted corn or rice , like some of those snacks. Hints of honey. Kaiser pear, passion fruit, basil, gunpowder, sulphur, lime, green apple.
Mouth still full of freshness, chalky, macadamia biscuits, peanut butter, wax and all there was in scents is there in your palate. Somehow it reminds you of a Mersault, but it has never touched any wood. Passion fruit drives the game, it is long and enjoyable. Many years ahead, but how better it can get? It opens even more with notes of yeast like an old champagne.
10% in alcohol.

Jun 10th, 2015The '94 is holding out with a strong backbone of balanced acidity, waxy fruit, and toasty minerals. Terrific!
