  A delightfully luscious., long drink alongside a superb French dinner.
  Unlike many American wines, this is a superb accompaniment to fine food. I concur completely with Ben Christenson's comment from March 2020. I am looking forward to finishing it tomorrow. Stood up to a superb 1985 [year of my marriage] Chateau de Beaucastel.

  Ripe exotic fruit on the nose. Think papaya and over ripe pineapple. Lees stood up as pastel de nata. Very textured and you have to appreciate the richness to enjoy it. I think the chenin is showing the ageing characteristics the most. Good wine, but I would suggest drinking up now.

  This was sensational. Drank over the course of three days and just kept getting better and better. Wish I had more. Aromatically complex and texturally darn interesting. A great wine right now. Don't see it slowing down but if I had more I would certainly plow through them.

  Still a pale hue. Hard to characterise the fruit element, pear seems closest but not quite right. Rich and full but fresh, a touch of oak. Quite big, quite long, plenty of acidity.
  Very enjoyable.
