Seems like this has shut down since when I last had it almost a year ago. Quiet nose gives some stream stones and pear/apple skin. Crisp, lean, and minerally in the mouth (only 12%). Almost seems more like an Aligote than a Chardonnay.

Surprisingly mineral. Almost like Burgundy disguised as Savoie. Nose very unyielding. Vague whiffs of citrus pith, pear, and intensely bright stoniness. Lively and bright as all get- out in the mouth, with nothing but limestoney minerality and crisp acids all the way down. Very unique and refreshing.

Bio, bit of fizz, baked apple, melon, Bosc bear, touch leesy, nutty but clean and fresh

Crisp and apply, with a hint of funk.

Melon and funk in the nose. A reductive quality that carries through the palette; maybe too much SO2. Mouthfeel has not come together.
