2012 vintage. Distinctly oxidized style, recognizable as Chardonnay but dominated by hazelnut with lemon curd. Super interesting style, but I appreciated this more than I enjoyed it. — 4 years ago

Very raspberry, very delicious — 4 years ago
Really strawberry. Not the big fleshy strawberries from the supermarket, but the little wild ones. A bit of sour cherry. Very good, but ultimately too one-note to be great — 4 years ago

Dry and nutty, apricot and nectarine. Perfect pairing with arugula, roasted beet and smoked trout salad with spicy dressing — 4 years ago
Wow my experience with this is better than many reviewers. Really a classic Rioja in perfect shape. Didn’t finish the bottle and the last glass sat for a week or so after Vacuvin, maybe even better after that. Cherry and sandalwood, just what you’d expect and want. Did this really come from WSJ? May be the only decent bottle in the sample case. — 4 years ago
Delightful. Honey and lemon but dry and crisp and 100% enjoyable — 5 years ago
