According to the Community this wine is outside its drinking window. With this accepted bias I proceed to accept what this wine has to offer. The grassy and acidic character is gone but the honey and rounded fullness is still a great accompaniment to some quiche appetizers before dinner. Less fresh and lively than the bottle I had last year but still very drinkable. Hint of apples, perhaps pear.

Honey, apples. Nice viscosity and medium finish.

Crisp with good acidity. Lemon-honey coated grass. Nice body & balance.

Very nice. Well balanced. I would swear there is some Semillion or something in here to give it weight and balance.

Bigger and more viscous than one typically gets with SB, with great fruit.
