August 13, 2017 - Really expected this to be dead but very pleasantly surprised. Dark golden color. Round, melony and tropical fruit with butter, full in mouth, thick without significant oak. Smooth with long finish. Clean. Honestly this might be my best bottle..and my last. Caught it at the perfect time.
July 3, 2016 - Wow! Honey-colored and complex structure. Worth waiting for
May 29, 2014 - Reserving a score because i"m not used to drinking mature Calif previously oaky chard. Golden color, interesting nose, butterscotchy, faded fruit. For me, this is at the end of its life or beyond.
Purchased upon release direct from winery.

February 8, 2013 - Lovely, mature, fairly balanced, but near the end of its drinking window. Drink and enjoy now. Went beautifully with butternut squash gnocchi.
January 7, 2013 - Still a big wine with lemon, citrus, peach notes. Big rich flavor with nice long finish.
December 27, 2012 - Developing well, improved since last tasting.
August 5, 2012 - Golden to Amber color. Great tropical nose. Toasty, but not oaky. Drinking great now
July 11, 2012 - Drank with friends last night. Amber color, lovely nose, and citrus, no oak and nice acidity. Love this wine.
