November 11, 2019 - Golden colored with slight brownish hues, nose of citrus and stone, notes of mineral melon with a layer of slightly grassy undertones, yet pleasant with nice balance and acidity. A nice match for the seafood entrees.
Still in its acceptable drinking window but time to drink.

May 20, 2015 - Big and honeyed with some earthy funk on the backround but remains bright and intense and not oxy. Works it out at $40.

February 1, 2015 - Nose of citrus and stone. Flavor profile was similar. More mineral then I expected but it was quite nice. Good level of acidity. Rather enjoyable bottle.

September 13, 2014 - PHMG WAG: Tour de France 2014 (Chateau Lyon): This is a nice open wine with citrus, melon, spice, and grass (not like the New World'ers!). Better with food given the acidity.
