  Notes much the same as the last bottle except that the additional cellar time has evened things out. Outstanding bottle in the unusual but wonderful style of Pernot.

  Seemed like a good choice to end 2020 on. Lovely bright clear green gold, showing a little age but not too much. Really nice complexity on the nose. hint of oak, some minerals, hint of coconut, hint of apple, there are many notes there, but none really stands out. Palate is equally smooth and complex, nice lemony tart apple acidity, some ripe apple, peach notes, maybe notes of caramel and coconut, really nice balance with a long finish.
  
  I've had a couple of really nice white burgs and this is up there with the best. Delicious.

  Top of the cork had mold on it which did not bode well. However the wine was not affected. It is rich gold in color. On the palate citrus predominates with some butter and notes of perfume and crushed dried flowers. Not sure if the mold on the cork signals that it is time to drink up.

  Let my bottles lay for 5 years before trying another and drank over 4 days of sipping. It was very good and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Fruit is more muted and color is more of a green yellow. However the taste was more complex and interesting. Less fruit and citrus and more of a robust earthiness. It is not a light drinker, but rather more of a food wine.
