I tasted the 2003 vintage of this wine on 26 Dec 2004 when it was 1 year old and gave it a rating of ok.
The colour was a quite intense straw gold. The bouquet was fruity and floral with citrus lime. The taste had sharp medium-dry lime and tropical fruit start, and a clean acid finish. This was a pleasant crisp clean fruity style.

This wine had a medium bright straw gold appearance. The bouquet had sharp lime and tropical citrus fruit. It was very crisp with citrus fruit and acid, and a slight honey character. This wass a medium-dry style, quite clean fresh and crisp.
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.
