Nose has lightly oxidized yellow apple peel, wet seashells, freshly cut pear, light creamy oak, fresh lemon pith and light honey.
Palate has light salinity, lemon skin, honey on oak slab and under-ripe peach.
Beautiful wine, great (medium) acidity, yet still young. Likely this will benefit with another 4-6 years of rest. Oliver Lamy is one of the best Saint-Aubin producers, and this bottle is proof, chaotic vintage and still shining.

75%merlot with cab sav, zin and Shiraz. Dark peppery fruit in the middle. Not your typical wimpy merlot. Soft finish with medium tannins. An Indiana find! — 7 years ago
Taste very sweet and delicate. Theres a word I want to use to describe it but cant put my finger on it. Its different than white or red wine, its sweet but strong - a good strong. — 7 years ago

Forever a favorite. Somehow they captured the essence of fresh fruit. You can almost feel the sunshine on your back as you sip, as if you're plucking blackberries off the cane yourself. — 8 years ago

In hills of Paso Robles, not far from Hearst castle, there is a man with a Homeric vision. His name is Daniel Daou and he is devoting his life to creating outstanding Cabernet’s. Deep red with complex dark berry nose, aged for 11 months on French oak (60% new). On the palate blackberry, tart cherry and a licorice twist, gentle background spice with savory fine tannins. Medium+ finish ending with cacao and earthy herbs. Great value. I also tried the Reserve which is something special. — 7 years ago

Mid crimson in colour. Nose of cherry and other red fruits. On the palate barely medium weight. More red fruits on the palate with a savoury twist. Fresh and juicy texture with supple fine Tannins. No need for further cellaring. 60% Nero d’Avola, 40% Frappato. Made for food. — 7 years ago
Big chocolate blackberry and licorice nose. Sweet tannins good grip and solid structure. Oak and cedar buoys juicy fruit with long finish. Almost Australian in style and structure very fruit forward. Fun. — 8 years ago

They have updated the label since. Sweet and a little syrupy mouthfeel. About as sweet as I'll go in a white. But a great value! Only a little bit of "overripe pear" note on day three of being open. A crowd-pleaser, as well. One of Oliver's less "cheapy" sweet options. A worthy buy. — 5 years ago
