So much overripe golden apple (in a very good way). Almost like bruised apple. Moderate plus acidity. Does lose something after it has been opened a while. — 15 days ago

Napa Cabs are good but this one didn’t do much to set itself apart. Excellent pairing with steak as expected. Notes paired with steak moved into menthol territory with just a little dark berry. More herbaceous. — 2 months ago

Love this. Let it open a bit. Just a touch of the petrol more typically found in older rieslings. Minerality and slate galore. White peach / white nectarine but with high-minus acidity. — 3 months ago

Pale. Lychee and petrol nose. Lots of apricot on the palate. High-minus acidity. Love it. Best when freshly open and chilled. Neither air nor warming to room temp does it favors. — 23 days ago

9.2

Fascinating. Like a white port or sherry. Nearly amber colored. Oxidative and reductive. Lots of wood. Hardly acidic at first but as it opens acidity goes to plus. Finishes shorter than I’d like. — 2 months ago

Great Riesling fe a single vineyard in FLX. Lots of mineral / limestone. Dry yet floral. — 3 months ago

Excellent California cab. Tannins are fairly sleek and has some agability in it. Typical flavor profile of the varietal. — 3 months ago

Fun wine. Strong oxidized notes with nuttiness. Floral acidity up front with an underlying hint of sweetness. Would love it if the flavors and aromas lingered longer. — a month ago

Much prefer this 2020 vintage over 2021 and slightly over 2022. 2020 created a very floral and moderately fruit-forward nose that is still dry with high-minus acidity. Minerality typical of FLX Riesling is there. Finishes shorter than I like. — 2 months ago
