Really quite good. Not as oxidized as I expected! Quite cloudy though. Remains fresh. Nose of lemon curd, persimmon. Beautiful elevation on palate and finish. Bravo to Booker! Nice white "rhone"!

My first Booker, recently purchased on the secondary market. Quite aromatic, but not as flavorful as I expected based on the nose. Slightly oily (but not too much for a Roussanne). Nice acidic balance. Stone fruit, nuttiness... nice and round.
Expectations aside, this was delightful and went quickly. Went well with caramelized onions, zucchini, and Greek herbed chicken.

Thought I might have waited too long on this one but does not taste past its drinking window. Full texture, cloudy, slightly sweet, honey, mint and a hint of orange.

Deliciously bold. Strong tropical flavors enveloped in a nuance of honey. Hints of lime. Big, round mouth feel carries the flavors to a long finish.

Motor oil on the nose. Minerals and waxy fruit. Elegant, liked this better than previous vintages. Lots of sediment.
