    April 7, 2019 - There is a half hour of brightness where the wine shows clean and vivid aromas and flavors - pear and minerals and the toffee notes of old Chardonnay, but energetically. Then thenwine fades and becomes more flat and the oxidized elements come across more strongly. It was a fun and very lovely 30 minutes.

    September 5, 2016 - Alive, honied pear fruit, a little wax, not very exciting. B-

    November 6, 2015 - Weird showing, quite advanced compared to last bottle, then it seemed to freshen up a bit in glass. Nutty, marzipan notes over sweet fruit, then more oxidized notes reappeared. Not good bottle
