February 1, 2014 - Wonderfully balanced. Nose of green apple and fresh cut grass. Palate with citrus and apple with some creme fresh notes. Still some tannin, but mouth coating finish not overbearing. Nice wine, could lay down for another two years.

September 21, 2013 - Mt. Veeder Tasting. Nose of Anjou Pear and baked apple, more of the same on the palate, some citrus flavors, easy to drink, refreshing after several red wines, medium body, long finish.
