  Agree completely w WIML note below; not much to add. Definitely on the downside but still 3-4 years of pleasure. Worked beautifully w a toasted pecan/arugula/chocolate mint/basil pesto on scallops and pasta. Shows better with food that mirrors those warm and nutty notes in this brilliant SB.

  Tasted non blind.
  
  Yellow color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of herbs du Provence, brandy soaked pears, lychee and wet stone. Flavors of quince, apricot and yellow pears. Medium acidity, full bodied. Drink over the short term. This wine was absolutely singing and distinctly more elegant and supple on the palate than the previous two bottles consumed years ago.

  Very nice. A little less fresh and compelling than the last bottle I had about a decade ago, but this was still really good. It had an pleasing nose of beeswax, orange blossom and stone fruits, along with a little lanolin at the side. With time, a sweeter candy floss note floated out as well. I thought it was a Chenin Blanc on that nose. There was quite a bit of weight on the palate too, with a creamy roundness in the mouth, showing through fleshy, ripe flavours of red apples and fleshier white peach notes, again laced with a touch of orange blossoms - all this leading into a long, weighty finish touched with mineral and spice. There was a nice bit of tension and definition lent to it by a candied lemon acidity in spite of its weight though, which kept the wine very drinkable in spite of its girth and power. A very pleasing drink, probably at peak now.

  Yellow color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of quince, kumquat and a hint of petrol. Flavors of lemon spritz, kumquat and minerals. Medium acidity, medium to full bodied. Fully resolved and integrated. Drink now.
