A vibrant lemon color in the glass. On the nose a powerful yet elegant deep lemon, tangerine and other mixed citrus, white and yellow flowers, lemon blossom, jasmine. On the palate the most beautiful tangerine, lemon and yuzu citrus. The most impressive, however, is the finish. Incredibly long, and evolves to a dried lemon/citrus rind that is very unique. I wonder with age if this dried character will become more in the forefront, which makes me very excited to revisit in 3-5 years. Outlasts many GG quality wines, and many times for me when Riesling has a lengthy finish there seems to be some phenolic bitterness, but this wine is pure. A triumph, and incredible value. @Lyle Fass — 8 days ago

Super confectionary nose with apricot, kumquat, peach and more. Unreal minerals which is like a rock dust perfume. Really aromatic and wide open on the nose. Palate is so 21. Grippy and intense with rock candy like minerals and terrific peach and apricot fruit and some white cherries. This has fantastic structure and density. This will easily last 25+ years. Unreal concentration and such aggressive and unforgiving minerality which I am here for. This needs time to open up but what a fantastic wine. Wow after a a few hours this picks up major density. Awesome fruit and length. 9.6 now. — 3 months ago

Powerful and mineral with huge levels of dry extract. Nose is provocative with its instant elite florallity. So dense yet elegant. Unreal elegant citrus fruit on the mineral blast of a finish. The finish is just ridiculous. Outrageous on the PNP but let’s see what air does. — 14 days ago
