Auction prices are based on actual auction results (inclusive of buyerÂ’s premiums) of 750ml bottle sizes only. As auction prices fluctuate from auction to auction and some wines have limited auction activity, the average auction price is updated twice a month and derived from a proprietary algorithm.

Rich and smooth with some buttery notes, but a very clean mid palate that finishes with good acid. Aromas of beeswax and lemon. The palate includes lemon, apricot, yeast, vanilla, and cedar.

Such a delicious wine. Medium body. Nice beeswax aromas with a slightly oily, preserved lemon flavor. Great with grilled seafood such as a nice swordfish steak. Best consumed at room temperature. An absolute steal for the price

Day 1. Unfortunately plagued by off-odors of varnish on the nose, overwhelming most of the fruit. Seems to be bottle variation. Still surprisingly composed on the palate.

A flawed bottle may be affected by cork taint, heat (maderized), oxidation, or excessive sulfur. Additionally, some people consider wines tainted by Brettanomyces (Brett), a non-spore forming genus of yeast, a flaw although there is much controversy surrounding the subject.
