Pretty good, but not aging with as much grace as you'd expect from this producer. Inviting nose of ripe apple and lemon oil. Palate is baked apple pie and lemon curd. Creamy body and a nice finish, but with some raw oak and heat that haven't managed to integrate over the years. Satisfied given the price I paid on the auction circuit, but would certainly be let down near full retail. Drink now.
