Apple, lemon, butterscotch, limestone, hay and hints of dried apricot. Good acid and balance.

I really like the concept. Only 40 cases made, real small, real special. Aroma was fresh and bright. Flavor was an interesting experience... In a good way. Didn't enjoy all the tartrate residue or the sediment. Some is okay and even expected in most small, natural wines. But this was excessive. All in all, an acceptable bottle and I look froward to trying more from this producer

Unoaked. So the fruit is full forward. A bit rustic and rough around the edges, but it certainly has flavor! Looking forward to future vintages as this wine shows terroir.

Decided to pull this from my cellar and what a beautiful surprise! A stunning bottle that has a fresh mouthfeel, bright acidity and zippyness throughout. Really dig this

Was made to believe it's be funkier. Not bad, but nothing special.

I dig this. Probably a little heftier than I like -- which I'll blame on the vintage -- but it's still pretty nice.
