  Took an 45 minutes to really open up. It was awesome on release but the fruit is waning some. Still good acidity. That was my last one.

  Still find this disappointing - nothing wrong with it as such but just OK. Deep golden colour but the nose and taste are nothing special. Suggest drink up and move on

  After searching, and not finding a simpler, less expensive wine for a weeknight, my hand kept pulling out this wine. As Miles instructs in Risky Business, “Sometimes you just have to say ....” (A tribute to Geo from his prior note.) The attack sports the crisp tang of lemon in a baked apple pastry that is followed by mineral and a finish kissed with hazelnut. Great mouthfeel; almost creamy. Far more elegant than I intended, and I suspect I’ll regret this at some point in the future, but for this evening, it heightened a meal, adding a touch more. 13.5% alc. With manicotti stuffed with crab and topped with shrimp. Highly Recommended.

  Northern Rhones with Guillaume Deschamps and Richard Beeken in Seattle (Kaspar's): This was served a little cold so initially was muted with only a bit of SO2 on the nose. As it warned up is showed a very nice balance of minerality, nuttyness, citrus, and acidity. Very enjoyable.

  Tuesday, February 11, 2003 Deep golden straw in color. Nose of honeyed lemon, white flower petals, almonds and buttered toast with a finish of fruit and minerals. Some complexity, but still somewhat tight. Nice mouthfeel with glycerol-like quality. Probably needs another year or maybe two. 13.5%. With baked chicken breasts with almond crust. Not a good pairing. This wine needs something more substantial.
  Tuesday, February 21, 2006 Nose of baked apple turnover with lemon and hazelnut; a full and satisfying nose with deep and well developed bouquet. Likewise on the palate, the wine satisfies with more of the baked apple turnover, lemon and hazelnut flavors. The glycerol-like aspects just augments the unctuous mouthfee. This is full and rich like its deep yellow gold color. Notes of butter (not butterscotch and not oak, but rich, creamy butter), on the rather long and toasty finish. 13.5% alc. With roasted chicken. Excellent pairing.
