  A Night Out on the Town! (Estelle in St Paul): Very nice! Still young, but oh so good! Well rounded with poached pear, melon, red apple and some citrus notes, coupled with some spice and toasty oak. I typically like these wines with 6-8 years of age, but it is drinking quite well now! The acidity keeps the fruit lively! 94 points.

  Lemon, lime, peach and dried pineapple fruit. Plenty of savory elements and depth. Minerality. Good acidity. Terrific with salmon on the grill.

  Unfortunately this was bought at auction and all the opened bottles so far were spoilt. I’m sure this wine is amazing when stored correctly.

  Golden color, citrus and apple nose, good acidity and mineralogy along with apple and pineapple fruits, nice long finish. Will age well.
