I tasted the 2002 vintage of this wine on 28 May 2004 when it was 2 years old and gave it a rating of ok.
The colour was a very pale gold, and slightly oily. The bouquet showed citrus melon fruit, and light wood. There was crisp citrus lemon fruit, and a light creamy buttery feel, with light oak. This was a fairly light simple citrus fruit style.

Note 1: I am not really a wine expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these wines. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot of this particular wine, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2: You may not fully agree with my evaluation of these wines, as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on complexity and intense characteristic and varietal flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
