November 18, 2011 - A nice medium golden coloring when poured with an initial aroma of peach and apricot. A nice structured, integrated and smooth wine with a hint of oxidation that blew off after about 15 minutes. Very smooth but just seemed a bit off somehow, hence the lower score. Possibly on the precipice off "over the hill".

September 6, 2009 - For those concerned about Girardin's use of oak, this wine has nicely integrated. No premox problems either. Color was a clear and bright golden yellow. The nose was fruity and floral, if a touch restrained. Good balance of fruits (peach and lemon) and acidity. A nuanced wine with enough of an edge to support dinner.
