October 3, 2015 - Great clean color for its age. Lots of acidity and early scent of oxidation. That burned off and we were left tasting a great classic wine. Wonderful and developed over the entire evening. Great wines only come in great btls and th S was a great representation.

May 24, 2015 - Gold color. Very fat and creamy. Apple, Butter, honey, and cake on the nose. The palate started to get sweeter with more time in the glass due to the ripeness. The wine had quite a bit of weight and intensity. I liked it.
