Tasting soon after bottling (summer 2016): |
- Color: Light yellow
- Smell: Lemons and grated lemon peel, sponge cake, vanilla, apricots, grapefruit, lovely stylish smell.
- Taste: Balanced with soft acidity, rich, thick but still a bit classic in style. Long, fat after taste.
- Judgment: Grapes without botrytis resulted in the the most classic wines of our 2015. Has a decade of potential development in bottle.

|
Tasting summer 2017 |
- Color: Medium yellow
- Smell: Unexpected silent, shy smell, a bit sourish and unrelieved
- Taste: More accessible and softer than the smell, a long after taste of citrus, but rather unyielding
- Judgment: This shows to be a wine with two peaks, one fresh after bottling and one mature after several years, with a depression in between. We had few bottles which we almost sold out last summer. If not drunk now, save them for a couple of years.
