Clearly should have read the notes on this, this is gone.
Oddly, it seems to have transitioned to mostly water. Not super oaky, not real flavor, muted acid, and not a whole lot going on. Come across super flat on the palate. Would have liked to taste this in its prime.

Not sure about this one. No striking flaws, other than just not getting much. Fairly muted aromas even with extended airing, some light pear. Doesn't completely cover its alcohol. And on this night just a bit <gasp> too dull?

As oaky as ok could be. Orange blossom, jasmine, grilled bread, doughy. Baked Apples, pears still present. I don’t get why they use so much oak. Shame

Either past it's prime or just plain bad.

Pale gold color. Nose of apricot and oak. Medium-bodied, silky mouth feel with moderate acidity. Plum galette with a slight caramel finish.
