December 19, 2016 - Probably a little past its prime, fairly closed upon opening, drank over the course of 3 hours and it opened up considerably by the end. Nutty and somewhat beeswaxy, after an hour or so some decent acidity crept back in that made the wine seem more lively than when opened, and gave it some slight tropical fruit notes. Drink up but let it sit for a bit before digging in.

May 24, 2012 - Double Blind Le Provencal, Wine Dinner; 5/23/2012-5/24/2012 (Le Provencal, Miracle Mile, Coral Gables,FL): - Light gold color. It's in total harmony with a medium/full body. Bright texture with a medium finish - Mark's wine(me).

November 15, 2011 - Unfortunate aroma, but heavenly palate and gets better the longer its open. A white that drinks like a red. This was the last of the 06.

August 30, 2011 - Beverly's at Coeur d'Alene Resort
Pale yellow-wheaty
Light to medium bodied, with hints of petrol and wet hey
Well structured, good acidity with long finish
Not my style of wine-the sommelier in training Summer, paired this with dinner-decent choice
