95 Points

Thursday, February 24, 2022 - Drank last nite at OTB nite with the WWS crew. What a delightful way to end a lovely evening. Mandy supplied, and this wine is showing wonderfully!
I've tasted this before and notes are pretty consistent. Gold color still not particularly darkened yet. Honey, pineapple and apricots on the nose, along with some mustiness. Sweet, but with subtle hints of bitterness. Wide spectrum of flavors, and solid acidic core. Great balance, all elements very nicely integrated. Lovely, long finish that was a joy to savor. Great bottle.
