Interesting older wine I found today. All the heavy oak and butter of its youth are gone. Rich full color but not oxidized. Dry finish with a touch of Sherry overtones. Very enjoyable.

This Monterey wine is surprisingly refreshing and light, nicely balanced and smooth with a slight fizzy tang like a pear cream soda.

Too old at this point but not unpleasant. Honeyed notes and rich golden color.

Absolutely delicious, fragrant on the nose and a smooth yet vibrant taste on the palette
