  The same flavors from three years ago are still there: green apple, butterscotch, sea air, and honey almond. It’s showing it’s age pretty well. Compared to last time, I maybe get more apple cider than green apple, less butterscotch, and burnt orange peel rather than fresh lemon peel, It was fine, but nothing special. The flavors seemed a little muted. Just an ok match with Sardine pasta for St. Joseph’s day. I’m going to save my last bottle for another 3-4 years. Better closer to room temperature. Best in Riedel Chablis, decent in Grassle, but not great in Zalto white wine glass.

  This was really lovely and definitely a step above my bottle 2+ years ago. It has bright acidity, a beautiful light to medium lemon yellow color and a fragrant nose that flashes raw almonds, honeysuckle, apricot and creamy vanilla. Palate has a great texture and layers of flavor that reflect the nose but a pop on the finish from the acidity and creamy almond and pear notes. I used a little of this in a sausage, mushroom and cream sauce that I added to some spinach and cheese ravioli. Long, persistent and delicious!

  Didn't take notes - consistent with my note from 8/20 as I recall. Aging nicely. 90-91 range. Would buy again.
