The Wine Summit; 6/2/2006-6/3/2006 (The Post Hotel in Lake Louise): Deep yellow in color, suggesting it may border on the edge of some maderization; aromas soft – some honey and peach (MT felt there was some botrytis here); creamy – some canned peach sweet fruit – also displayed the usual chalk/mineral flavors; some oxidation noted, but the wine was lacking in acidity; finished with moderate length, and quite agreeable at the end, with no notes of oxidation. Overall, somewhat disappointing. The wine is but 10 years old and the lack of acidity relegates it to a so-so wine.
