September 30, 2013 - Light Gold color. Apricot and butterscotch nose. Almond and berry flavor. Interesting and unique but not a big fan.

August 12, 2013 - Excellent description by christophee on 1/28/2012 and I concur although for my pallet I find it to have excellent structure and complexity and may have noted this as the wine has had an additional 18 mths since the posting by christophee. Excellent citrusy lemon bite and high tones with a lovely oily mouth feel and long finish with very well balanced oak; gorgeous.

January 28, 2012 - Straw yellow with medium viscosity in the glass. Key lime pie, vanilla, apple, stone fruit and grass on the nose. Secondary flowers, white pepper and tropical fruit. Med-lite body with nose redux on the palate. Nice minerals. Good oak and MLF integration. Oily tartness on the back. Medium finish. Could use more structure.
