  Light lemon color, tending towards gold. Complex, ripe apple, pear aromas along with faint citrus, herbal and mineral notes. Medium bodied on the palate and silky with great presence and length.

  I just loved this wine. Full of personality. On the nose, just the slightest bit musky with scents of botrytis. On the palate, fresh, round and vibrant with tertiary evolution, an absolute pleasure to drink and open to a variety of food pairings.

  This wine really needs to be served just below room temperature. Melon and tropical notes linger with its long finish. It still has at least another 5 yrs.

  Wasn't a fan of this the last time I had this, but enjoyed it much more this time around. Love the complexity here - lots of savoury straw, lanolin, and other savoury notes with gentle yellow fruited flavours at the core, and nice acidity giving it some cut beneath a round, glossy mouthfeel.
