March 15, 2014 - Last bottle but better than the one I just opened. Carmel, apples, spices, pineapple and subtle oak. This is more balanced and complex and should still be consumed now. Wonderful effort.

December 25, 2009 - A: Clear, medium gold
N: Quite vegetal - cooked green beans, some mineral notes, leesy, nutty, aldehyde; very Burgundian
P: Very similar to nose - med + body, med alc, very nutty on long finish
Tastes very similar to Meursault to me - rich but not overdone. Ann's favorite. Didn't seem to fit very well with the Smith Madrone or Buty. Completely different style. Would love to taste this along side some Burgundies. -
