September 11, 2023 - Right in line with Lauren but a step behind Sugar Shack at this stage. Prior note holds. Big and ripe but nuanced. Drink these now of hold five plus more years.

August 7, 2023 - What a wine! Had it with grilled lobster tails and it was drinking beautifully with it but also excellent on its own. Golden yellow in color nose has bouquet of apple tart, pears, peach cobbler pie, buttery vanilla, lemon oil, cashew nuts, white flowers and herbal notes of dill. Palate is extremely balanced and polished of orchard fruit with tropical fruit notes in harmonious package with lively acidity and long tangy finish. 97-98 pts.

April 8, 2023 - Brilliant yellow-gold after 90-minute decant. A voluptuous mix of ripe apple, lemon, fresh-cut hay and sunflowers with a crisp apple-skin finish. Drink over next 4 years.

February 23, 2023 - The wine of the night. Huge spectacular flavor super intense with acid and fruit and butter all in a focused package. The acid meant it went well with food in spite of being so big with flavor.
