Whoa. After another oxidized white Burg, this was well beyond a delight. Of the four of these I bought two were badly oxidized, the other two fantastic. Lemon curd, flint, vanilla, and oak. Whoa. After my recent disasters with Burgundy, this was magical. thedrunkencyclist.com

After last night (when I pulled three bottles, including one of these--and all were oxidized) I was paranoid. Really paranoid. So I grabbed this to take to our favorite BYOB fearing the worst. Whoa. This is what an older white burg should be. Whoa (and that's 2). The slightest hint of oxidation from the golden elixir along with faint lemon curd and a hint of oak. Rich and unctuous on the palate with that white burg goodness. Whoa (and we have three). Finish lasts for quite some time. thedrunkencyclist.com

Very nice spot right now though it opened up nicely over a couple hours. Nice lemon pledge scents, rich oily mouth feel that had a nice mineral cut and a very long clean finish. Would buy again.

Past its best but acidity still provides freshness. Slightly oxidised. Oak vanilla is the biggest flavour hit, followed by peach.
