Very solid for the price. Some toasted nuts and truffles blend with lemon and honey and ripe chard fruit. A tiny vegetative note but nothing negative. Broad if simple on the palate with a medium length well balanced finish. Tasty!

Old oak, nice balance, great sour tanginess that comes from wild yeast. Big tropical fruit -- mango, pineapple -- but not new-world style... Very well balanced. Paired nicely with roast chicken. If only we'd had cracker noodles, too. Sip it slowly and savor it.

Golden colour; melony; limestone and candied ginger. Butterscotch laced with high acid. Tremendous value. Not overly oaked, but it is nonetheless present. Smoky, burnt toast.

Oxidized, but I have nobody to blame but myself. This is well beyond any reasonable expectation of longevity for a wine at this level/ price.

A beautiful wine at a great price. My detailed description would largely echo tcfischler's.
