Thursday, May 7, 2015 - Given the purity of the fruit and the overall level of complexity here, this seems over-priced by a factor of 2. Nice by itself, even worked pretty well with food, but nothing memorable here - I was hoping otherwise.

I think it was more a case of some negative bottle variation (our conditions, i.e. road trip, were less than ideal). Would be glad to try it again at some point.

But I've had 30-year bottles that were stored at room temperature, suffering through extreme temperature variations, and they were golden. I've had bottles stored in 55 degree cellars that were meh. Go figure.
