Fantastic nose. Cassis, liquer, blackberry, blueberry, dark black cherries, florals and mega spice. Stunning but holding back. Lots of granite and an airiness about it. Super penetrative nose that has tremendous complexity and ethereal layering. Palate is a stunner. Big and rich but so elegant and sapid. Blackberry and blueberry fruit that is ultra concentrated and so refined. This is so refined. Gorgeous purity and depth even though it’s holding back. Incredible fruit and the oak is in check. Will track this but easy 9.5 for now. With air this became outstanding. Velvety and so elegant. 9.5 to 9.6. — 16 days ago

Light golden color with a subtle green hue. Aromas of tart green apple, pear, lemon zest and slate. The fruit forward palate features cooked pear, lemon, orange and sweet spices. Long, rich and intense on the slightly herbal finish with a crisp mineral note. Bristling acidity. Clean and bright with a silky smooth texture. — 2 months ago

Flabby on day 1, mellowed by day 2 but not as expressive as previous bottles, maybe a touch over the hill — 6 months ago

Subtle notes of stone fruits, but somewhat dominated by phenols. This subsided with air, but influenced my experience. Palate was lean and clean with nice salinity. Acid was soft, but balanced. I did anticipate better from this producer. — 2 months ago
