Sweet and floral. Lovely delicate lemon curd with a hint of sandalwood and minerality. Delicious- open and fun.

A very expansive nose. Succulent bright fruit with lemon, yeast, limestone. Really light and powerful with good length. Refreshing, zesty and delicious.

More restrained than I remember it. Lemon, limestone, salinity. Fresh and delicious and getting better in the glass

05 vintage at In Situ (yes I brought in the wine for early Cecilia Chiang dinner) and it was full mousse at first pouring. Just gushed and relaxed into precise focused wine with intensity and subtleness. All the peaches and zest but drank mostly just like Cristal should always. It's why they get away with that packaging!

Bright, lemony and super precise acidity. Not worth the luxe price tag but delicious
