Nicely blended with some ripe black fruit. Leather, vanilla, chocolate, oak. Nice structure for a big ripe fruit cab. — 4 years ago

A little oily, but otherwise a great rosé pairing for summer grilling. With soy sauce burgers, grilled curry chicken wings, and nectarine-tomato salad with fresh mozzarella and tarragon. Better with food than as an aperitif. — 5 years ago

II’ve loved all the Sandhi 2012 range of whites & this £65 S&B is superb 👍 Paired with enough curry to get a small village going regular for a week 🤣 💨 sorry I didn’t take pics of that feast 😁

Dense on nose (showing some maturity?). Yellow aromas all through: apple, grapefruit, curry and some grassiness, some lactose. Kind of viscose, powerful on palate with some alcohol burn on finish, but is paired with a high acidity that balances it quite nicely. A bit of nice grapefruit-bitterness in structure. Needs a good food pairing to bring down the alcohol somewhat. — 6 years ago

Super interesting white/orange blend. Nose is full of rose and other dried florals, orange blossom, jasmine tea and green unripe nectarine, with the fruit showing better on day 2. Due to 15 days of skin contact, palate is slightly tannic and as a result comes across strongly like a lemony black sun tea, with juicy acidity that lacks an edge. Round, somewhat drying finish. Tough pairing with an Asian salad day 1 and a veggie curry day 2 - this needs something like a simple fish preparation. — 7 years ago

Nice refinement, with strong Sous voile character. You can feel and taste the difficult vintage underneath... taste and aromas of curry, hay and crushed seashells — 8 years ago

The few years of bottle age brought out a little more complexity which only expanded after decanting. This paired perfectly with spicy coconut crab curry. — 5 years ago

9.1

Firstly the nose is driven by strong Sherry notes. Gets better & more harmonious with air. The Sherry turns into curry plant, fennel blended with hints of apricot & yellow stone fruit. Like a laser beam on the palate, very salty, vibrating and grasping. Long finish. — 8 years ago
