People at the table liked this a lot more than I did. Slightly oxidative. But by no means over the hill. Good fruit and balance, lots of secondary flavors. Carmel and butterscotch. Definitely liked this a little warmer. Brought out the nose much more. Have one bottle left and don't think there's any benefit to holding. Drink up.

Fully aged and ready to go. Darker yellow color. Still good acidity. This is very specific in flavor and taste but it is so good and balanced. Serving this slightly warmer brings out nuts, caramel and rocks. This is in a perfect spot but dont see further development - drink over the next few years.

Dark golden color. Showing its age but holding its own. The acidity is mostly gone which says drink these now. This is still in a good spot with a good amount of freshness and depth. Popped and poured and wondering if a little time to air out might not have helped. Have a few more of these which I will drink soon. 92-93.

Some Great Whites at Octo Fish Bar (Octo Fish Bar, St. Paul, MN): Oxidaized, no fruit. Too bad, was really excited to try this one.
