Drinking very well, mature, tail end of secondary phase. Plenty of guts to go 5 more years at least. Cork was soaked through, sunk in a bit, with a thimble of wine on top, but the wine in the bottle was no worse for the wear. Paired nicely with stir fry with a brown sauce.

This is very nice , not too sweet but lots of fruits and petrol, not sour like last one we had. Broken cork again , but salvaged nicely by me. Enjoyed.

Lovely stuff. Deep golden color. Lovely nose of pineapple, quince, and butterscotch. Slightly off dry, but with a wonderful balanced acidity. Flavors of golden delicious apple, pineapple, Myer lemon, butterscotch with mild hints of sarsaparilla and petrol. Peak drinking window with another 3-5 years ahead of it. Great value!

Drank from my cellar with Thai food tonight. In a killer place, teetering between early secondary notes and true maturity. Hybrid golden delicious and granny smith apple... some nice petrol in the background... complex and aromatic on the nose, full(-) bodied on the palate without the lingering effect of heavily charred or new oak... and with a finish that lasts 30-45 seconds. For the $15-20 you hopefully paid for it, this is a great wine. Ready to roll now, plus up to 10 years depending on how mature you like it.
