  December 6, 2011 - Golden color with a cool nose of lemon curd, some almond paste, seashells, it melds seamlessly to the rich yet balanced palate, with more mineral-chalk driven backbone with excellent texture, density of flavor, and nice cut, all of which comes together nicely with the fruit and cool herbal undertones. My last bottle of this, and while I have had quite a bit of bottle variation, this is probably the best bottle I have had and punches well above its weight class. This is at peak and while I doubt it will improve, it (at least this bottle) has a couple more years easy. Outstanding stuff tonight. 90 pts

  July 14, 2011 - Golden yellow in the glass. I was worried this wine might have become flabby by now, but it still had strong acidity, nice minerality and citrus flavours.
