7/28/2012 - jerrynova wrote: 89 pointsThe color is a very evolved shade of burnt yellow, almost amber. On the nose the wine is very full-bodied with notes of toffee, melted butter and over-ripe fruit. On the palate there are oaky notes of salted toffee, cream, ripe yellow plums, caramelized lemon peel and popcorn. |

5/5/2012 - jerrynova wrote: 88 pointsThe delightful copper toned color, rich bead of bubbles and generous nose of matured gouda, cream, ripe fruit and an overall sense of visiting a french bakery in the early morning are very promising. On the palate there is soft vanilla custard, strong toasty notes of almond biscuits and a gentle undertone of fruit. Not great, but good. |

11/27/2012 - jerrynova Likes this wine: 95 pointsTruly outstanding. The intense color, golden with a delightful copper hue, and the vividly floral and fruity, gently oaky nose with a delightful hint of cream evolves on the palate to enticing flavors of dried honey, burnt cinnamon, caramelized figs, a hint of chalk and a strong undertone of ripe apricots. |
