  This bottle is providing a similar experience to my last two bottles. It has tropical and citrus fruit, some Kiefer lime, chalk, good minerality and acidity. But, it is not as pleasurable as it was several years ago.

  Very clean and crisp. The acid is there,but balanced. Scents of lemon, grass with a pale straw color make for a most pleasant wine. Paired over two days with dungeoness crab and farrow mixed with roasted cauliflower . The wine is just perfect at this time.
  
  Enjoy and my thanks to Jamie for his excellent work.

  Shared by FMIII. Typical Trout Gulch fruit, really nice. This is more rounded, fuller mouthfeel, than other vintages. Medium acidity, some might say more balanced. I like razorblades.

  Drinking very well still. Lemon oil, less acidity then the brighter years for TG, more fleshy and with a rounding off from the oak features. Enjoyed this but still think is better short term.

  This has evolved and relaxed over the three years since my last bottle, but I do not think it's declining. There is now some pear fruit to complement the citrus and chalk in the aromatics. The palate shows more round fruit texture than when it was younger, but the zingy acidity remains. This drank better and better as it got some air in the bottle and warmed up from fridge temp.
