Always a pleasure. Just wish it wasn’t so pricey.

Tea, white flowers, stone fruits with honeyed notes, slight hints of petrol and sherry, and still has vibrant acidity. Paired magnificently with the cheese course.

Medium dark gold. Medium plus mouthfeel. Tactile on front of palate / slightly more glycerol mid palate. Wildflower honey, apricot/stone fruit. Slight bitterness. Came alive after 30-60 min in glass.

I tried this vintage once before and was excited to say the least. Upon first quaff, the wine seemed surprisingly reserved compared to my mental notes. I revisited it over a three-hour period, and sure enough, it came to life. A vibrant bouquet of lime and honeysuckle jumped from the glass. Totally balanced with electric acidity and minerality. It definitely lived up to its reputation.

Wonderful wine. Acid-driven and dry. Early notes strangely reminiscent of a flavor between grape gum and bubble gum in the best way possible. Thanks so much @Alan Weinberg
