  Medium deep straw with a little gold. Mineral, lanolin, smokey, marzipan. Funky nose. Some botrytis and lees. Caramel notes. Fresh palate with a little texture. Bottle age and funk. Interesting but just ok.

  Pale lemon color. On the nose, there's green apple, pear, lemon, subtle toast and a beautiful nutty quality that reminds me of a parmesan rind. The palate features much of the same with a touch more brioche. Long and complex finish. There's a nice tension here between the high acidity and some of the nutty flavors -- very much enjoyed this wine.

  Ordered off the menu at Miller's Guild. Wet rocks, smoke, nicely understated for the vintage--not as ripe as many 09's have been.

  Floral aromas with a hint of citrus. On the palette, well balanced floral tones followed by some citrus, green apple. still drinking well.
