Fruity, almost tropical, nose. Blimey, this is ripe. Catty taste, but intense and fruity, like New Zealand. Extraordinary. Good, but massive for Quincy.

Exactly, she was lucky, but it was £10 quid for heavens sake. On a better harvest and you get the same flavour for 7 Euros in a Britanny supermarket.

Actually Goose, domaine bottled Quincy has gone up in leaps and bounds in recent years - well ya know this stuff.
