Finger Lakes, New York, USA
Honestly I don’t remember the last time a wine made me shriek “F#iK YEAH” so... let’s lead with that this is sapid AF. One of those wines that is so layered but also you get them all at the same time so you are smacked down with I dunno...perfection? Really rich in ripeness that feels like a clove studded orange to me. Something that hits like lemonheads but maybe gold and mysterious incense...gold myth and frankincense? It’s hard to give precise taste metaphors when a wine is unapologetically itself. Why find tasting notes on a wine if the wine could be the taste itself?

Tried this vintage last summer, and then had it this fall twice. Continues to impress!

Good balance of acidity, sweetness (very mild), and and fruitiness. Ripe peach on the nose but more nectarine on the palate. Not exceedingly exciting but good execution.
