Wonderful complex and luxurious aromas of lemon, yellow apples and oak. A bit rounded in the edges, acidity not hitting hard initially, but rather catching up after each sip. Super finish. — 21 days ago

Straw yellow, medium bodied, nose full of passionfruit and lemon. Slightly oaky, mineral but also sweet. Love it! Very value for money — 9 hours ago

Drank it too fast and too small of a pour. All I remember is that it was yummy. — 10 days ago

This is my third and youngest encounter with this elusive Y, and as always it is tastes like the epitome of hedonism. I had to take a moment alone with the wine just to acknowledge that, those who truly love wine, will know exactly what I’m talking about. The predominant flavours on this wine are orange marmalade, orange peel, and fresh tangerine… All working in unison on the palate, no single element ever outshining another. Creating harmony. — 24 days ago

9.1

Bright lemon color. Particularly intense grapefruit aromas and flavors with hints of freshly cut grass, asparagus and fresh herbs. Distinct citrus note on the very long finish. Bright, crisp, refreshing and zingy! Wonderfully consistent from vintage to vintage. — 11 days ago

9.8

Graphite and raisin, fig and marinated porcini, smoky dried cherries, black pepper on grilled beef fat, toasted sesame, dried black and red currants, all within an aura of damson and violet and honeyed rose petal. Palate leaps with damson and dried and fresh bing cherry, dried spiced plum, cedar and dried lavender, black olive, moist tobacco, and perfectly toned tannins which come off as a separate, undefinable taste of fruit skin extraction with stunning depth; tea leaves meet dried blackberry in a redwood stand. Soft date and creamy fig follow to a tart raspberry end.

such a consistent wine in every vintage ~ see my 2021 notes ~ but will say 2022 is a little more subtle ~ don’t drink it too cold! — a month ago
