June 12, 2023 - Retail $35. Under cork. 100% Chenin Blanc. I purchased four bottles of this wine back in 2007. I consumed two bottles that same year (2007) but this is the first I have cracked since. Whoa. Beyond "golden" and well into "amber" with an absolutely incredible nose: baked apple, roasted walnut, a touch of petrol, and a whole lot of verve. Whoa. The palate is initially quite tart, quite tart. Then comes a healthy dose of citrus fruit, a nutty gorgeousness, and a hint of wet rock. Another whoa. The finish lasts for close to an hour. A fabulous wine. From before I knew my wife. Of over twenty years. Yeah. Yum.
97 Points.

July 13, 2017 - Great wine, freshness and silky tones battle for first place in taste. Pairs excellent with salty blue cheeses.

January 22, 2017 - Mellow aromas of lemon curd, vanilla, mandarin orange juice and some plastic/new gym shoe rubber. Palate is lightly syrupy, full bodied with pleasant sweetness, bright acidity that comes in at the end, and just a hint of tannin. Nice vanilla, marzipan, lemon custard. Also some grass and baking spice. This is really cool and has more years of good drinking in it.
