2014. Lots of baby fat. It needs a bit of time in the bottle to settle before I taste it again. It will come around.

2014. Expressive and generous. Toasty, citrus, focused, and textured. A wine with purpose and verve.

Beautiful minerality. The pairing with a full jumbo lump crab cake is one of the best marriages of food and wine I've ever had.
