PnP. Medium gold. Lovely nose of orchard and tropical fruits. Good intensity on the palate with rounded fruit and high extract complemented by a high acid finish. This bottle is certainly not past its prime has been cellared at 58 degrees since release. I expect this will improve tomorrow or could use a decant. More intense than a Cuvee Cathleen we had recently but not as well balanced and elegant.

Disappointingly, this bottle had a brownish gold color and was oxidized. Nevertheless, this wine was delicious with my wife’s spicy side stripe shrimp and book chow with XO sauce.

Medium yellow color. Aromas of ripe apples, honeysuckle and hazelnuts. Ripe, full-bodied fruit in the mouth with excellent depth and length. Nicely full and long on the palate. A delicious wine that is still fully intact but just a touch less exciting than the outstanding 2014 version of this wine.

Corked but only mildly.
Down the drain unfortunately.
