August 14, 2023 - For my 2,000th note on Cellartracker, it was an amazing experience to taste this. Incredibly long 30+ second finish of orange marmelade, citrus peel, forest honey and emerging hints of petrol on the nose. Drinks as good if not better than some of the top d’Yquem vintages (I know it’s not the same grape). 97-98
