August 5, 2011 - Honeyish robe. White flowers, vanilla, caramel and honey on the nose. On the palate, this is buttery with definitive oak. Yellow and exotic fruit with a hint of honey and it ends with almond flavours. Pretty good but definitively new world!

May 29, 2011 - Couleur paille assez soutenue. Lors de la première journée, le nez est assez expressif sur les fruits tropicaux et le bois. En bouche c'est très intense (presque trop), fruits tropicaux, saveurs de noix de grenoble et bois. Au e2 jours par contre, l'ensemble est plus souple et il y a ajout d'arômes de pomme verte. De beaucoup meilleur le 2e jour. A passer en carafe un bon moment (+ de 2 heures selon moi) afin qu'il soit meilleur. Pour la garde car trop jeune...
