November 23, 2015 - I really liked this, it has aged beautifully. Its a golden yellow color, with an elderberry nose, and bright acidity, but still well balanced, very nice

September 23, 2010 - Great nose w some tropical fruit. More of the same on the palate. The finish was pleasant if not real long. Drink now.

April 30, 2009 - Great fruit - citrus and honey. Long finish with more oak in it as it warms. Enjoyed very much - not sure it was at its peek after 12 years but very good now.

March 5, 2009 - Impeccably well-made, it offers notes of honeyed grapefruit, tangerine skin, and melons in a medium-bodied, elegant, dry and aromatic style.

March 29, 2005 - Hint of creaminess at first, but not overwhelming or unbalanced. Wonderful concentration of white fruit: peaches, apricots; carmelized apples (not in an oxydized sense, though). Honeyed notes of Semillon lift from the glass. Med+ acidity. This wine needs food. A little oak component emerges as the wine sits. Great length and structure. On the finish, there is a bitter hint (good). A wine to seek out.
