Lithe, pear, faint citrus. First few tastes weee great but shortly after it needed some food. Did not hold up with the overseasoned prime rib. Best with more saline based dishes. Turning into a wine to complement seafood. Consume over next 2 years with food. Or maybe it was the foods I had that shut it down( prosciutto /cheese).

As usual, this is too much richness and oak when taken alone but sipped in between bites of chicken piccata with a buttery, lemon-caper sauce and fried potatoes with asparagus, it is hard to imagine a better wine & food match. Solo this is like 80 points but in the context of this dinner it's 10-15 points higher.

Past it’s prime but holding on enough to be enjoyable for an aged chard

Good but sharp not as full as Dehlinger that was 4 years older drunk with the same dish chicken pot pie
