Expected more acid for an '11. Weak aromatics, kinda flabby, lots of oak. Classic mom wine.

Great Wine but on a 95 degree day. I picked the wrong wine to serve with seafood! Served as a App! We never fixed the bottle! Go figure. Suggestions anyone! CB

Creamy vanilla and caramel and bananas foster all baked into a compote and then finished with a tart apple note that goes on and on. Doesn't get better.

Cool nose, has summer fruit, with something tart and sour. For me it was there on the palate - a little grapefruit. Nice stuff, lingers forever. But dare I say it, miss a little of the old Kistler oak? (At least a little??)
