July 24, 2018 - Bright yellow gold
Quite a bit settled down with 7 years.
Nice rich mouth feel, but though at only 13.7%,
the alcohol is starting to peek through a bit more.
I agree, I’d drink up. -

October 15, 2017 - Yellow color with no detectable fruit, just oak and mineral notes.
Similar to the previous bottle. Drink it up. -

September 23, 2017 - Yellow color with a bouquet and flavor without noticeable fruit, mostly oak with some mineral notes. Slightly harsh, but mostly lackluster. Appeared to be over the hill. I would drink it up.
