    October 15, 2018 - 2.5 years after our prior: Golden, bright, savory, complex, vigorous, harmonious. Very enjoyable over three nights.

    May 3, 2016 - If I'd read the notes below we might have held off opening this for another year. But not sorry, it was lovely. Golden. Yes, there was some richness, a bit of viscosity, but nothing overdone. Lovely balance, with a mineral backbone. It developed nicely, taking on complexity over three nights. We have one more and will hold it a couple years -- or so I hope.

    April 9, 2016 - Under cork, rather than the 2013 that is under Diam - the difference is considerable, although of course there are two years difference in age as well.
    This has a much richer, creamier texture - some butter mixed with shells on the nose - the palate retains some freshness but it lacks the crackling zing and layers of the 2013. The quality here is very good, but veers towards too rich for my palate.

    March 1, 2015 - Beautiful nose with classy oak, butter, coffee, gun powder minerality, wet concrete, apples and a bit of tropical fruit. Medium acidity, medium+ body, slight tartness but overall quite round and fat. Medium+ intensity and a long finish.

    I really liked this, and had I had any bottles myself, I would have kept them for a couple of years before opening the next one.
