still good fruit, but approaching the end of its life. The power is gone, but the nuance remains. Some spice and a bit of oak. More earth than earlier.

Great as usual. This Rhone is versatile, but really sings with some food. Did not overpower sauteed chicken cordon bleu because of the light brown cheese sauce reduction.

This just keeps improving with time. Don't understand, but it has become more full bodied.

Ready to go! Medium body with layers of cream soda, and strawberry.

Underwhelming for the score given. Still young but not showing well even after being open for a few hours.
