January 5, 2024 - Half bottle bought in an auction. What a wine, with a beautiful dark golden cokor. Such a length and depth. Quite dense on the palate with exotic fruits. But it kept a great acidity to compensate. Paired amazingly work cheeses.

June 17, 2023 - An Evening with Friends (J&J's): Light golden color. Pear, marmalade, honeycomb and pear liqueur aromas. Rich, with flavors of pear nectar, pineapple and marmalade. Excellent. (C&R)

June 18, 2021 - Friday Night Brown Bagger (J&J's): Double blind, from half bottle. Deepest color of the flight. Subtle bouquet; tropical fruit and orange blossom notes. Rich texture, featuring apricot, marmalade and spice flavors.

December 29, 2020 - Deep but bright orange-amber color; apricots and carmelized peach pie notes with a lovely botrytis touch, slight burnt pie notes; lovely silky rich plush entry, rich sweetness but not cloying, still good acidity in the end, really nice, beautiful character, holding up very well. W/cheese before sushi dinner S&L
