Drank @ sushiya w/a bunch of whites. Initially a little closed, certainly opened up more after 30-45 min bottle breathing. Honey, vanilla with good acidity. Very balanced after first hour. Paired well w/sushi w/o overpowering at all. Good btl for sure.... just not easy to find older vintages like this or earlier.

Drank @ sushiya together w/a bunch of whites. Quite a surprise w/the nose, very much of vanilla, nutty, pineapple, very enjoyable and not the 'cosmetic' type nose.... Palate-wise, smooth & a little sweet, easy to drink for sure, while not being thin-body. I quite like it and happy to have some more in the future.

Drank @ causal french cuisine. Absolutely gorgeous nose, vanilla, peanuts, caramel & sesame.... Very enjoyable! Creamy in the mouth but not too much, medium to full bodied I would say. Probably warrant an even higher rating if it was consumed in a better stemware. Will certainly try looking for another btl or 2.
