  April 19, 2021 - Haven't opened a high end win in some time. But tonight, I made lobster ravioli and decided to pop this. Bought on release through the mailing list. Cellared ever since with appropriate temp and humidity, under ground and then in a free standing unit. Cork was pristine. No ullage. Color was straw to light golden. Nose was interestingly citrus; by turns lemon curd, lime and mandarin orange. A touch of honeysuckle. Nothing heavy. If there is oak or butterscotch, I don't get that now. The flavors in the mouth are similar. There are some mildly exotic spices as well. Don't ask me to name them, but they are there. Mildly so. Complex. The finish is amazingly long. Persistent flavors and aromas as above. One bottle left. I'm not in a rush, but this is clearly low hanging fruit.
