Light straw color. Green melon, white flower, pineapple, yeast, cut grass. Electric texture with food-friendly acidity. Gunflint muted at first but comes through at room temperature. — 9 years ago

I may have had a bad bottle - strong scent of crushed magnolia flowers. Lovely brightness and salinity. I see the potential but didn't enjoy the bottle. — 9 years ago

Yeast and white flower in the nose. Mineral, acid on the finish. Incredibly food friendly. Don't chill too much - nose is best just chilled from room temp. — 9 years ago

Taut acidity, strong cedar with a bit of mulling spices. Some plum. I found it too tannic initially but greatly improved when paired with a rich soft cheese. — 9 years ago

A lot of lemon, acidity, a little bit of salinity. This isn't super complex but it's food-friendly, and for the $ pretty solid. — 9 years ago
