Electric! Wow what acid. Insane purity. Floral like nothing else. Kumquat, white flowers, tree bark, crushed rocks, mulch, lime zest, candied lemons, so complex, it’s crazy. Huge acid, huge depth, huge minerals, huge extract, so elegant, confectionary, pure, clean. So so so so good. Perfect, fruit, mineral, everything.

Jul 12th, 2020OMFG this is in the zone. Stunning nose of apricot, hint of the best honey, floral, so perfumed and expressive. Citrus pith. So vivid. Tangerine, kumqwat. Palate is crazy complex with incredible apricot and peach fruit that is so focused with outstanding minerality and persistence. Fresh and textured with unreal linearity. Structured and intense and oh so juicy. Glorious.

Man I love laible. Totally laible but has a hint of tropicality bc of the vintage. Maybe a bit more hedonistic and less cerebral than usual. Still has that acidity and minerality. What a terrific producer. Bought from fass selections.

Have you ever been water boarded with the essence of spring poured out of a narwhal horn by an angel? Me either, but I would imagine it tastes something like this. Damn, @Lyle Fass
