| | Tasted by Jshire on 2/12/2022 & rated 91 points: At 11 years this is at it's peak. Golden crystal color with a aromatic nose of honeysuckle and apple-blossom. Peach, pear and agave presented as a full bodied mouth feel. Truly a joy! (859 views) |

| | Tasted by SiciliaVegaUnica on 6/14/2020: I’m not rating because I waited too long to drink it, but it’s not a bad tasting. (1507 views) |
| | Tasted by Château de Farmer on 11/9/2019 & rated 84 points: Drink now. Was fairly full bodied and fruit was not particularly expressive. But no real unpleasant notes. (1756 views) |

| | Tasted by galewskj on 10/27/2016 & rated 87 points: Mostly CDP's; 10/23/2016-10/27/2016 (Gary): A small pour at a tasting. I found this light and uninteresting. I've been enjoying some Grenache blanc's at home, and this wine did not have the depth, acid or interest of others. (4452 views) |

| | Tasted by Mattshank on 10/18/2016 & rated 91 points: Nose: Big oak evident with pear substrate. Palate: More dry styled than previous bottles with the pear showing and a really clean finish. Last bottle of this and a solid QPR play at $16.50/bottle. Still 91 points but for differing qualitative aspects. Drink up if you have any. (3550 views) |
| | Tasted by td1836 on 9/30/2016 & rated 90 points: White night with friends: Not much changed over the last couple years. Peach pit, apricot, a hint of honey, solid acidity. It has a slightly oily texture and heavy weight. (1328 views) |

| | Tasted by Leomania on 12/31/2014 & rated 90 points: Opened for guests on New Years's Eve. Didn't even get a splash of it, but those enjoying it raved which is consistent with my previous bottles. (4252 views) |
| | Tasted by Ron Van Holland on 12/6/2014 & rated 92 points: Scrumptious nose of tropical and cool-climate fruit. Very nice balance between the complex fruit, medium acidity, and peach-pit minerality. Comes together in a long finish. Sadly, my last bottle. On to the 2012... (4400 views) |

| | Tasted by bullmrkt on 9/19/2014: My last couple of bottles were a pale representation of the crowd pleaser this once was. Too bad because it was really good, but the fruit and energy just completely faded. Short lived! (1811 views) |

| | Tasted by vinodolphin on 9/3/2014 & rated 90 points: Perhaps a bit too much buck for the bang considering the competition but a very nice refreshing white that stands well alone or with food. (1608 views) |
