  Better than the last bottle. We've had some variability on bottles of this vintage. This bottle came off very clean with nice notes of apple and pear. Very enjoyable. On a standalone basis, I would say this wine has some life left in it, but with the ups and downs we have experienced, we will finish off our last two bottles by the end of the year.

  This bottle wasn't as good as previous of this vintage. Wasn't quite as crispand didn't have the same viscosity of a couple of the previous bottles we have had.

  Best bottle we have had of this vintage. Was nicely balanced with little acidity. Clean and fresh. Notes of apple and pear.

  Light gold color, butterscotch, toast on the nose. Relatively high acidity, I could never shake off the wood to get to the fruit, but it was enjoyed by others...
