In such an amazing place. A perfect bottle. There is youthful power and verve and an incredible depth and seamlessness of vibrant fruit layered with minerality, pastry cream, roasted hazelnuts and an ocean spray-like salinity. It’s texturally captivating, wrapping around the palate with killer density without weight. Racy acids balance its richness and secondary nuttiness and it finishes forever. White burg at its finest. — 15 days ago

After 14 years, quite an impressive showing. The usual two players-Mr. Tanin and Mr. fruit -still working together and near perfect harmony. It was a delight to drink.  — 17 days ago

Light golden color. Faint aromas of lemon zest, green apple, chalk and white flowers. The palate notes an assortment of citrus fruits (lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange zest) with additional notes of green apple and kiwi. Abundant mineral on the dusty and somewhat funky finish. Well balanced and highly concentrated. — 17 days ago
