    September 30, 2023 - Compared to previous bottles of the same vintage, this was really disappointing. Past it's best.

    September 23, 2023 - Dyp gul farge. Lukket på duft ved åpning, men kommer gule epler, appelsin, lime og fløtekaramell. Fin munnfølelse, bra syre (bedre enn enkelte andre Kistler jeg har prøvd), bra intensitet, lang, smør, bakt sitron, ananas. Noe metallisk. Bra nå, men tror den vil utvikle seg positivt de neste 2-3 årene.

    April 15, 2022 - Clear pale/medium gold; clean medium plus nose of lime, apricot, mango, croissant and cheese; dry; high acidity; medium plus alcohol; medium plus body; medium plus flavour intensity; palate is tarter with fruit payoff and dolce de leche on the finish; long finish; drink now or in a few years; blinded as a white Bordeaux - similar to the first bottle that we had; conclude that there’s lots of bottle variation in this vintage

    February 12, 2022 - Clear medium gold; clean medium plus nose of ripe lemons, butter, croissant and Kraft caramels; dry: medium plus acidity; medium plus alcohol; medium plus body; pronounced flavour intensity; palate is tarter with addition of caramel/vanilla and molasses; long finish; drink now or in a few years; fantastic wine - buttery goodness yet refined and elegant; much better than the last bottle we had
