A butterscotch and brioche rush on the nose, which flows through to the palate. Apricot and citrus notes on the mid palate. Lovely acidity and oak treatment. This has evolved to better place since the last time I tasted this vintage.

Nose is pineapple and oak. On the palate Only moderately alcoholic. Almost a chemical oak taste. This could be worse.

Checked all boxes in what is a California CH style, but not worth $102, sorry. You can get the same or better for half that. Halo effect? Coattails?
