December 18, 2023 - Dinner at Perilla (Chicago, IL): I love how incredibly chewy this is from all that minerality here. It's definitely sweet, thanks to the vintage, but that mineral chew gives this the weight and counterbalance for all that sweetness. The acidity is dialled down, but this never feels out of balance ever.

June 1, 2019 - Still light gold. Subdued sweetness. Smooth, subtle and delicious. Should continue to get less sweet. Has the balance to continue drinking well as it matures.

December 26, 2018 - White fruit (apple, slight peach), nice sweetness, floral, seems like acidity might be fading a bit. Still really enjoyable.

October 27, 2018 - Very rich and sweeter than expected, without much complexity. I expect it is only starting to come into maturity and has several years of life left.

October 21, 2018 - Medium gold. Not overly sweet. Hint of peach pit on the finish. Not complex. But smooth and refreshing.
