Not the best bottle of this wine I have ever had, some natty wine flaws sadly.

Mar 25th, 2024According to the winemaker’s notes we were at least a year or two premature on this one, but I thought it was lovely. Subtle skin contact, acacia barrel aging and an intriguing hybrid varietal give this highly aromatic, pinot blanc-esque beauty a lot of interest

Feb 27th, 2023Slightly carbonic but delicious. Ripening pineapple, white stone fruit and an unfiltered appearance… My friend Elias Fernandez at Shafer loves this one as well… @Paul T- Huntington Beach @Shay A @Stanley Barrios @Shauna Summers @Jim Trobaugh @Neal Schaffer @Ian Blackburn @Warren Sapp

Dec 4th, 2022Teetering on aromatic/soapy, but with redeeming citrus and mineral finish.

Nov 10th, 2019Caramel nose, sweet baked fruit, subtle nuttiness, wet stones and medium acid. Would be great with some food.

Jul 13th, 2019Floral aromatics. Citrus, saline, stone fruit on the in-take. Medium-bodied, good acidity. Elegant without being reticent.

Mar 1st, 2019From a single vineyard planted on pink clay and limestone, fermented in concrete and aged in Acacia casks. Still super tight, so decant if you choose to open a newer vintage within next few years.

Complex and strikingly original lemon-zest, smoke and dried-chamomile aromas pour from the glass. Then comes the concentrated but very refined palate,followed by a super-long finish that’s a cascading waterfall of wet-stone minerality. Just doesn’t want to stop! From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. - JS
