Over the top; drank with several other bottles of different whites open... this stood up to the sausage & stinky cheese ...concentrated flavors of butterscotch; long finish. Not a wine I would enjoy every day but powerful & noteworthy.

Medium golden hue in color. Vanilla bean, caramel & lemon curd on the nose. Full bodied wine that had multiple layers of flavor....pear, peaches & cream and hazelnet. The oak was well integrated and gave a hint of spiciness to the lengthy finish. Absolutely delicious! 50+5+13+16+7=91 pts

Color - Clear & Medium golden with a tinge of green (5pts) Nose - Pear, marshmellow, green apple with toast oak (12pts) Flavor - Full bodied, creamy, mouth coating, lemon curd with a touch of heat on the lingering finsih (15pts) Overall - This wine has mellowed a little which I think benefits this wine. It is more in balance today than last year (7pts) Total 50+5+12+15+8=90
