2019-09-07 $40. Very acidic and bright. Needs food for me, seafood pairing on a hot summer day to make the citrus notes refreshing rather than overpowering. Shrimp appetizers, maybe oysters. — 6 years ago

2019-09-07 Love it. $38. Crisp and mellow, not too acidic or citrusy, not oaky. Good minerality. Enjoying on its own, but also imagining pairing with tender grilled octopus, Barceloneta style. Yum! — 6 years ago
