At 23 years of age And 22 years on the lees, this wine has loads of toasty autolytic flavors combined with lemon drop, dried orange rind, dried raspberry, baked apple, toast, pastry, honey, hazelnut and acacia. Soft but persistent mousse and an extremely long finish. — 2 months ago

Characterized by salinity and bright citrus fruits on the nose. Mousse is compact. Bright acidity on the mid palate with notes of berries and moderate sweetness. Looks stunning in the glass. — 2 days ago
The 2006 is in a great place right now. Balanced with some elements of a second maturation phase. Toasted almonds and brioche - very pleasant treat on this hot spring weekend. — 11 days ago

The first two glasses did little to nothing for me, but that opening shyness turns into an expressive full-bodied mouthful as more air gets on it. Very dominate notes of pastry, the creaminess of baked apple pie, marzipan and apricot run into the richness and depth of aged reserve wines. Still has a polished feel that takes away some needed acid. Have it with chicken or pork dishes — 8 days ago
