Quite lovely, some density and savory notes wrapped up in this fresh little 2012 from a new producer for me. Would happily drink this again, would be intriguing to try it next to Vatan or Dagueneau

So much SO2 that I could make an addition to a small tank with this bottle. Tending toward green, marginally ripe.

Really balanced SB. Apples, pears, little lemon and oil. Awesome summer wine.

Mildly vegetal on first opening, gets to a really nice (mild) honeysuckle/jasmine scent after some time open, even hours. Summer deciduous leaves rubbed between yr palms nose; starfruit, white peach mouth; black pepper and mineral water finish. Cuts thru.

Crisp, delicious, less tart than some of the New Zealand varieties.
