June 4, 2023 - Floral/citrus notes on the nose. A little muted on the aroma. Medium bodied with lemon peel, apricot, peach and touches of buttery toffee flavors at the end. Still feels in a really good place.

December 22, 2021 - PnP. Medium gold.Rich nose of butterscotch, peach, and a hint of citrus, but more towards the tropical fruit end of the spectrum. Lovely palate texture, smooth and well balanced with the rich fruit countered by some good acidity. This is drinking very well at age 9. Richer (and riper) than the Littorai Thieriot and perhaps more enjoyable.

July 9, 2021 - Really loved this. Crisp like green apple yet full flavored like peaches. Really nice secondary notes through out. Finishes strong but clean

March 13, 2020 - Popped and poured. Ripe, a bit waxy, with buttery caramel. Lacking acidity. Not as fresh as I remember. Reminds me of Aubert (for a fraction of the price). Either this bottle was lacking the balance I remember, or my style preference has changed since I had this last.
