At a restaurant and tried another bottle. Still fresh stone fruit aromas with a touch of spice. Peaches, pears and pears with a slight citrus tang. Well balanced with lively acidity. The oak flavors seemed more pronounced than my notes indicated from the previous tasting. Still wonderful.

Sep 12th, 2017Complex and balanced. Has a soft mouth feel and delivers a long finish. You can smell and taste the oak, white flowers, and lemon. It makes you feel like you should be in a field somewhere enjoying a picnic with seafood and a bottle of this.

Oaky with subtle butter notes. Familiar aromas and flavours with good balance but finishes with a tart, lemon peel quality. $43. 2013

Rich, lightly oaked nose with creamy notes of lemon oil, peach and pineapple. Lush, creamy but bright and zesty on the palate. Flavors of citrus and stone fruits lead to gentile notes of oak with big, bright, juicy acidity. The finish is lush with continuing acidity and a last quick remainder of fruit. Delicious fall wine with butternut squash risotto.
