Has really aged beautifully. Well balanced with no discrable acidic finish. Medium floral bouquet. Palette of citrus, cedar wood and melon. Long finish Ready to drink now. I do not think it will be as good in another year. The bottle finished flat

Easily worthy of its WS rating. Interesting pairing tonight: chicken and dumplings. Was amazing. Beautiful golden color. No flaws. No sediment. Mild rim variation. Beautiful, intriguing nose. Minerality. White florals and citrus. No tannin. Low acid. Medium alcohol. Medium finish. Very drinkable and approachable. Suspect it has plenty of bottle life left.

Nose of apple, lemon peel, melon, pear and spice. Apple, melon, crisp citrus and spice on the palate with integrated butter and mineral notes. Leads to a medium to long, soft, dry finish. Good acidity. Paired with Chicken Normandy.

Served slightly below cellar temperature. Aromas of melon, pear, lemon peel, fig, honeysuckle and spice. Melon, fig, lemon, coconut and spice on the palate lead to a long, rich finish with interwoven butter and mineral notes. Consistent with previous tasting notes. Paired with pork scallopini.

Nose of fig, melon, lemon zest, toasted oak, spice, and butter. All are on the palate and well integrated. Excellent balance of fruit and oaky tannins. Rich with good depth and balance. Bright acidic finish with integrated mineral characteristics. Very enjoyable paired with Fettuccine Alfredo.

Very nice, but not as complex or interesting as the Torchiana to my taste. Lots of light and citrus fruit with a fresh finish. Maybe will get more interesting with time.

Wonderful balance and a loooong finish. Multiple fruits apparent with some mineral overtones. Drank to soon but can't wait for a year or three.
