March 19, 2023 - The other ratings are spot on. Drank at Blackberry Farm (The Barn). A revelation for sure, just a beautiful bottle of dessert wine. Like the love child between a great Sauternes and a singing aged Tawny Port. Clearly more enjoyable and interesting than any bottles of d’Yquem (including with significant bottle age) I’ve had. Bravo!

September 5, 2018 - Rhone Admissions (Vaucluse): Yum yum yum. Officially a bonus bottle as well, but the bonus dessert! First time with this wine or maybe even any dessert wine from Rhone Valley. This pours a slightly orange color. It's fuller bodied. Very complex. As previous note mentioned there is a hint of the salty with the sweet, but mostly this is sweet and intense and very tasty.

November 13, 2010 - Rhone Varietal Tasting (Our House (2033 Brandywine St., Philadelphia)): My wine of the night. Slightly oxidized note. Just an amazing and intense blend on the nose of honey, apricot, salinity, peach. Dense palate with enough acidity and minerality to really give this a boost. The finish was amazingly intense and long. This was a revelation.
