Served one of 4 bottles 01-14-06. I was less happy with the wine now than when tasted and purchased. It seems to have lost some of its bright notes and seems more fleshy, soft and even slightlt heavy. Still a nice tropical note. Food pairing likely contributed to the personal score; scallops in a rich cream-based sauce that really wanted more acid. Made note to remember this with the remaining two bottles. Overall a very good wine bordering excellent, but final score remains to be seen...

Tasted at property; floral and slightly tropical. Very generous and promises to be quite good with perhaps another 2 years cellaring

Winery: Light floral, mineral, stones, good a’s. Not much character there, though.
