Golden in the glass with clearly oxidative aromas. The palate took me by surprise - the viscous and textural body juxtaposed against the enamel-melting acidity was quite pleasant. Also found the lightly bitter herbaceous backend quite nice, though the rest of the flavours could have been fresher.

A serious wine that requires about an hour of decanting to show well. Shiitake mushroom, marcona almond, bruised yellow fruit, and with background acid crunch to carry it to the finish. A real delight with Provençal chicken. Good qpr

It's great. After some age, acidity is much more subtle and integrity. Beautiful honey suckle, stone-fruit aroma

Aromas of briny honeysuckle. Long flavors of citrus and savory herbs with this mid-palate hint of freshly cut jalapeño. Fantastic by the glass pour at #FaroBK #bushwick
