  To much wood. Big Chard - hold back on the oak and this would be more drinkable.

  Amber color, showing some age. The nose has some pineapple and ripe peach, but also has picked up some burnt plastic aroma. The palate is falling apart, there's some sweet, sloppy fruit, and the burnt plastic is there as well. This bottle is obviously over the hill.

  Very buttery but enjoyable. Ripe apricot and pear on the nose. Medial length finish that paired nicely with tilapia (with lemon pepper seasoning).

  Too buttery for my taste, a bit nutty really, but still you can tell that it is well made wine.

  Yeah, pretty much as per my tasting note 5/4/09. The loss of one point from then is due to the perception that there was a faint hint of oxidation on the nose. But only just a faint hint.
