Crisp, mineral and citrus. Good depth and complexity.

Aroma is low tide, sea stuff, salty sand. Super ripe drippy lemon, river stone, gorgeous at 7 years old.

Slate, a little sweetness on the front and finishes dry. Really well put together wine

A nice on-the-bridge style. Racy and fresh with the mid-palette weight to balance. Spice and quince. Beckons for fish.

Enjoyed 2015 vintage today. I believe it will blossom next year.

One of my favorites. Medium body with hints of fruit, peaches, blackberries and some grapefruit. Starts out a bit tart with a sweet finish. High acidity with low tannins. Lots of flavor. Would pair well with goat cheese, pork and a more robust fish.
