    July 29, 2013 - Toasted and yeasty. Rich, nutty taste with notes of apricot. Mature and excellent now.

    January 19, 2012 - Medium gold. Good mousse. Nose shows yeast, cream and apple pie. Slightly sweet entry and some nice rich pastry and lemon curd flavours and a slightly sweet but rich finish. The acid shuts the door in the end. Excellent.

    January 13, 2012 - Bill's Monthly Lunch - January 2012 (Vancouver, BC): Tasted blind - medium straw in colour. Nose of baked apple and toast with hints of yeast and floral notes. In in the mouth this has a soft feel with great acidity and flavours of lemon, apple and toasty bread. A long finish here and while this is drinking very well right now there’s no rush either. Excellent.

    March 6, 2010 - Bolts right out of the starting gate. 70% chardonnay/30% pinot noir. Golden color. Chewy, silky texture and mouthfeel. Toast, fig, biscuit on the nose. The pinot noir core shines through with tastes of cherry, almond and orange peel. Beautifully integrated and well within it's drinking window. 2-3 more years in cellar should really bring it all home.
