July 10, 2011 - Golden honey colour evident. Nice balance of oak with a hint of melon. Probably drunk when too cold, later in the evening the wine warmed and the flavours became fuller/more obvious.

June 16, 2011 - Wine was probably past its best. Melon fruits still evident but wine was unbalanced and alcohol evident. Just shipped today so may have been bumped around. Not unpleasant but not as good as the last bottle.
