  October 7, 2021 - Not a Sauternes but quite enjoyable.Pears, peaches, good balance. Acidity lacks a little flavor, the sweetness is backward and a bit watered down.

  September 5, 2021 - Enjoyed a half bottle of this with friends at the park after a round of bocce. Basil-Lime Ice Cream and Ginger cookies. Good example of style, well paired. I will remember it.

  June 5, 2021 - Honey, apricot, white nectarine, (spear)mint (menthol), a little bitter almond, lavender, tobacco aftertaste (in a good way). Good, indeed very good, length. I think it is far better than the other reviews suggest. Classic example of Beaumes de Venise.

  February 10, 2021 - Temperature may decide your reaction.
  Icy shaved fruit ice to funky muscat animal.
  Long time since last Muscat, lacks sweetness, more dried apricot tang and sulphur.Chemical aftertaste. If I try to match with a dessert -- a dried, stale fruitcake. Which is less a dessert?
