  March 20, 2011 - Wow -- I was prepared for this to be disappointing given the age...it kind of got lost in my wine fridge. But I loved this bottle. Brilliant golden yellow, crystal clear. Nose was a mix of citrus and floral -- a bit reminiscent of a viognier. Crisp on the palate, a light sweetness of honey giving way to an almost lemony finish -- a pleasant tartness, not at all overwhelming, balances the floral notes on the nose. Outstanding with grilled chicken.

Nicely balanced on the palate - good acidity matched with plenty of ripe fruits mainly of apple with honey and some floral elements. Not much in the way of minerals but overall a very nice white.

  Bright clear amberish yellow. Nose of pears, citrus and burnt sugar. Slightly tart burnt sugar on the palate with a sour taste on the mid palate. This also had a slightly bitter finish.
