2012. Colour light yellow, in nose intense varietal, elder with a little citrus and green herbs in the background. In the mouth a full, nicely rounded, fruity, silky structure. Nice balance. Medium to long very pleasant finish, full of fruity sweetness with nice, well integrated acid.

Vintage 2013 is a total different. Golden Yellow color. In nose, strong elder and peach and dry flowers and some herbal-green. Medium to full body. In the mouth strong, aromatic, very noticeable fruit acids. Very good balance. Long finish, aromatic, with much crunch acid. Well, this new style (acid-power-green) and Decanter bronze medal brought great popularity to this wine, it was white champion in 2014.

2015. After a pause return to the old: rich aroma, reduced acids, beauty. Color yellow with old-golden shade. Smell of elder and peach and flowers. Medium body. In the mouth white peach, elder, some wild honey and little spices. Acid and alcohol very well integrated. Mild long finish, very aromatic and smooth.

2016. New label. Taste is combination of vintage 2015 and 2013. Tasty.

What else? One of the rare Bordeaux white blends here. Championship Sauvignon Blanc from Fruska up Semilion gave aroma and softness, and the result is this great wine, from year to year different, but just never leave you indifferent.
