Sommelier Appreciation Dinner 2020 (The Brown Residence): From 3L. Golden color which is typical. Strong orange rind, clementine, oyster shell, burnt sugar, beeswax and almond cookie. Perhaps slightly closed but I doubt it will regain energy and freshness.

Needs an hour of air for the initial sherry notes to dissipate. Once that happens, you are left with a very elegant wine of great length. Apple and wet stone.

CT Wisconsin Offline 2; 10/5/2012-10/6/2012 (Madison, WI): Light hay color. Muted nose. Great balance on the palate, with acidity that could use 3-6 years to smooth, although this drinks fine right now. Great class and elegance.

Classic white hermitage notes. Best with 1-2 hour decant. Less bold and more subdued than last bottle. It appears an ideal time to drink.

CT Offline WI Take 2: Judgement of Madison(Paris) Tasting & BYOB Dinner (Madison, WI): Lemon curd, petrol/plastic note along with apple core on the nose.
On the palate I got a spritz of lemon juice with other similar notes as on the nose.
Nice balance and mouthfeel with a medium plus finish.
SS 91+pts.
