Color/app: medium/light yellow. Bouquet of lemon zest, vanilla, green apple and some oak. Palate showing apple, pear and a touch of lemon framed by a deft touch of oak. Good acidity and structure with a respectful medium-long finish. To my taste this doesn't have quite the heft of previous vintages; needs more oomph and a better defined midpalate. Certainly acceptable at a sale price of $8 a bottle but I think I'll wait for a better vintage and grab a case.

Gold color. Yellow apple, honeycomb and some sea shells on the nose. Juicy apple and tangerine on the palate, with medium acid. Some whipped honey, nuts and nougat notes. Tasty, and solid for $12, but lacks a bit of personality to get me excited about it.

Good QPR. Dominated by stone fruits (peach, apricot) and subtle tropical fruits (subtle mango and very subtle pineapple). Good balance, and medium finish. Would definitely buy again. Paired well with Dungeness crab. 86-88
