What a difference a year makes! Last time I reviewed this it was shallow and lacked dimension. A year in the bottle has revealed a host of interesting bitter melon, green almond, and sage notes.

Mineral, green almond, lemon. By day 2 a little air put some umpf behind it and the finish got a little broader. Nice, but not their coolest effort.

Wonderfully taught and mineral, gaining floral complexity over time. The kind of wine that perfectly refreshes and snaps you back to attention after a long shift.

Lemon, baked apples, nuts, yeast, and plenty of minerality. Acidity is snappy, great balance, and a strong finish. First biodynamic wine I've had from Burgundy.

This wine has continued to go from strength to strength over the last year +. Developing so well. Putting on some weight and showing a savory element as the brightness recedes.

Very tight at first but it fleshes out nicely with air and as it warmed up.
