March 22, 2024 - Sunny, rich fruit... with tinge of discernable sweetness, but well balanced with freshness. Very nice!

March 1, 2024 - Late Night Dinner with Vignerons (Wally’s - Santa Monica CA): Certainly rich, easily balanced with so much orchard fruit. Very good + weight, very good now.

December 25, 2023 - Lovely floral nose with honeydew melon, minerals, and vanilla in the glass. Delicious.

August 13, 2023 - Great showing, and even better value! Compared to the last bottle opened last year this was notably more demonstrable, revealing on the nose more up-front and buttery tropical and stone fruit notes, e.g., peach, orange, pineapple, apple blossom, and lemon. Big and exuberant in the mouth at first, with more depth and balance coming with 1-2 hours of air coupled with the same flavors. We loved this, and it punches well above its weight!
