Still delightful and delicious. Mainly yellow orchard fruits, a bit candied, a nice balance of sweetness and acid. Similar to what it was in its youth, just a little more mellow.

Still showing very young and unevolved. Rich sweet yellow fruit and earthy slate, but not yet integrated. Thick and dense, lots of material, more like auslese than spatlese. Needs time?

Beautiful golden color, a bit shy at first but opened up with some air. It feels primary in the mouth, very clean, great texture and perfect balance between sweetness and acidity.

Cellared since release, perfect cork and fill. Yellow color, great nose of apple, flowers Carrie’s through to palate with lush ripe fruit, beautiful balance, vicious palate-coating intensity and complexity that builds on the back palate and medium-long finish. Should drink well for decades. Excellent-outstanding.

Very fine, apple-like sweetness, sheer weight, and a squirt of key lime acidity to keep it perky. Love it.
