I’m mixed on this bottle. It was rich and honeyed and totally its own thing but had a little too much of that oxed nutty flavor. Drinking like sherry which doesn’t thrill me.

There is some acidity, but other than that it's like drinking apple juice, I applaud the strong biodynamic focus, but if there isn't some sort of balance to them I don't know if I can support them.

Bright gold in the glass. Dried pome and wet straw on the nose. Baked quince, straw, dried flowers on the palate. Medium plus acidity and a wee bit of spritz on the tongue. Full body. Medium long finish.

Pretty simple flavors, tilting towards candied stone fruits and grilled lemons, fading into a dry, fresh and mineral-lazed finish, where alcohol becomes way too evident.
