  Xmas day dinner 2023: decanted for approx. 30 minutes (cold storage); clear straw-like color; opulent bouquet with notes of peaches, apples, and citron plus hints of exotic fruits and petrol; smooth, round texture with a reserved acidity on the palate; medium body. 92/100
  
  As the evening went on this wine showed better and better and so I decided for an upgrade to 93/100.
  
  14% vol. alcohol.

  Past it’s prime but still tasty for a 25yr old pinot gris! The nose smells like the wine is going to be sweeter than it is. Apricots, slight sherry notes, acidity still present and reasonable length

  Orange color. Needed some time to get to room temperature to reveal its flavors. Round body and smooth mouthfeel. Orange peel, lemons and cloves. Medium to long finish.

  Aged gracefully. Golden color. Stone fruit. Mid sweet - pre 1 to 5 rating. I’d guess level 3 or 4. Stores at 53/54 from release. Coravin pour

  Deep orange color. A bit waxy mouthfeel. Petrol and some spice. Apricots and oranges. Feels a bit disjointed. Just doesn't give much drinking pleasure.
