  I'd planned to hold onto this one for awhile, but I couldn't wait. :) Popped and poured. Just like I remember it - super-leesy and caramel-y, with killer acidity and a very high delicious factor. This bottle was on its side for a few months, and threw an impressive sediment (!). This still has years of life left. Awesome. $20

  Love this style: strong butterscotch on the nose, tropical fruit, bread and butter. Handles the oak well. Nice mineral structure, zing, though a bit hot on the finish. Wish I'd bought more.

  Popped and poured. Cloudy appearance. Leesy nose, with a little butter and smoke. On the palate, medium-bodied but refreshing, with a good acidity. Juicy and leesy. I will say that the midpalate is a little weak. Very judicious use of ok. Holding out great, no need to rush to pop this. Good QPR at $20.
