July 16, 2021 - Youthful color but with a decidedly mature bouquet- subtle orchard fruit and citrus notes with a dominant butterscotch note. Medium-bodied, tasting better than it smells, with apple, almond, citrus and mineral. Tart acidity. Mature, but not as advanced as the bouquet. This was our penultimate bottle so we will queue up the last in the relatively near term.

Waxy, buttery, slightly oxidised with toast, honey, stone fruit, quite rich. Medium plus intensity acidity is a little sharp, lemon, textured, alcohol warmth.

August 7, 2020 - Deep yellow gold color. Advanced but not oxidized, mature notes of lemon, honey and baked apples. Deep, rich palate showing mature flavors but it holds up over several hours. Drink up.

December 28, 2018 - I wish I had a lot more in the cellar. Still shows a touch of oak on the nose but there is so much more with lemon, flowers, caramel and green apple. Palate is so viscous yet balanced and finish is very long. Gorgeous now and will get better.

August 16, 2018 - My final bottle of this from those bought back in 2010. This bottle last night was beautiful, coiled with lemony acidity, some light oak and spicy, yet all in balance with the kind of energy that I really appreciated. No signs of premox here and it's aging beautifully.
