February 15, 2024 - Medium amber color with lovely aromatics of apricots, honey, and quince. Pleasant acidity and length. Tried over two nights with great pleasure. There is no hurry but this is drinking very well now.

July 8, 2023 - A friend shared this wine. It was excellent; had with "covered" nuts [White & dark chocolate, caramel, etc.]. It was at the end of the 2005-2023 drinking recommendation but probably has a couple of years left.

May 17, 2023 - Much darker color than would seem normal, but the wine seems properly aged nonetheless. Wonderful honey and honeysuckle on the nose and some subtle yellow tropical fruits. Delicious right now, but now but be in no rush to drink.
