April 1, 2015 - Taste blind, bright golden yellow, showing aromas of floral, pear, citrus and lots of minerality. Fresh and elegant.
Full and supple entry, amazingly a '01 white still has good structure, richly palate with some oiliness, still prominent oaky notes with ripe pear and abundant fruits. Medium acidity, long lingering finish and very good balance. -

April 1, 2015 - This started off with a rather reticent nose. After some time in the glass with some coaxing and swirling, I could get white-flowers, citrus and with more time, some cream as well. On the palate, minerality took front stage. The finish was rather long too, just that it was marred by a slight tinge of bitterness towards the end. This should get much better with time in bottle...

April 15, 2012 - Filling in w/the Sunday Brown Bag Group (Rich's & Dana's): Fairly deep color. Notes of citrus, lemon oil, apple and minerals. Medium-bodied, the palate follows the bouquet, with added almond qualities. Fruit carries nicely through the finish.
