December 24, 2022 - This is still vibrant and fresh, but not suprisingly more evolved than my last bottle a few years ago. More tertiary notes coming in, this is in a really great place now. Beautifully aged but still vibrant. Love it.

April 26, 2022 - 醒酒一个小时，闻香有浓郁的植物气息，还有奶油和面包香气，入口酸度中高，酒液咸，有矿物感，口感丝滑，橡木桶影响明显，奶油面包，植物气息，二三类香气占据主导，后段微微回苦，余味悠长。酒体饱满，香气复杂而深邃，同时又保持着很好的酸度和结构，没有一丝老态，展现出陈年而又健壮的最佳状态。

January 8, 2022 - Briefly, we enjoyed this very much as part of a long lunch, paired primarily with a crayfish bisque with armagnac.
As PeterNelson said "creamy, light herbal notes, guava, grapefruit, integrated oak, nicely balanced". Quite light on the acidity, but that worked well for this pairing.
I'd be happy to get more of this in at the ~US$50 I paid. No sign of it aging out yet. -

December 18, 2021 - Certainly a fullish nose, tropical fruit, kiwi, lanolin, cream, but also a savory, slightly unclean note I didn’t care for.
