The first thing I got was passionfruit. Lots and lots of passionfruit then the lemon and a bit of blackcurrant and leafinesss kicked in. There is a slight honey sweetness here.

Oxford Landing Chardonnay 2020, Riverland, Australia
A glugger! Pears, apples, tropical fruits but nothing I can pick out, butter and a bit of oak. Simple but nice and smooth. Goes down a treat and a nice wine for the price.

3 de Valandraud 2016, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, Thunevin, Bordeaux, France
After an hour this really opened up. Blackcurrant, plums, hints of raspberry, medium tannins at the finish but added to the experience. A few more years will soften the tannins but them again this is really fruity right now so why wait.

Château Tour Sieujean 2015, Pauillac, Bordeaux, France
Blackcurrants, blueberry, cherries, cedar and oak. Very fruity and the tannins are enjoyable. A bit of warmth which gives it a nice bit of body too.

GB Sauvage Riesling 2019, Georg Breuer, Rheingau, Germany
Acidic lime and lemon, a bit of apple and minerally finish. This was a bit too acidic for me.
