July 22, 2023 - This dessert wine is still drinking in great form. Marmalade comes to mind. Paired perfectly with dessert vanilla bean panna cotta with strawberry, honeycomb, and candied fennel.

September 17, 2021 - Brilliant deep gold color. Candied orange rind on the nose with other citrus and baking spices. Palate adds some straw and almond. Plenty of acid and fruit to carry this a decade or two more. Lengthy finish. beautiful!

July 28, 2020 - Dark amber color. Nose is orange peel and spice. Palate is quite unctuous, rich, with some backbone of dryness. Really matches some of the best d'Yquem I've tasted.
