  Med to light yellow. Baked pears, burnt sugar, butter (tarte tatin). Silky, chardonnay fruit - pears, lemon peel and a spicy oak to finish. Really easy to enjoy and fresh.

  I last had this in January '08 and it has improved considerably. A scar of oak, but not the amount of vanilla from its youth. Nicely made with an undercurrent of acidity that has become more prominent with age. I enjoyed it.

  Still fresh and vibrant. Great acid --- white fruit (apple, pear, peach). I didn't get much floral aromas or flavor. Just a hint of oak. Very long finish. Went very well with the no-meat lasagna. No decant - served with just a slight chill.
