Pale lemon with complex aromas of fresh ripe citrus, stone and tropical fruits with floral mineral notes. On the palate flavors of peach, apple and melon with lemongrass and herb notes. Long finish ending with juicy fruit, herb and honeysuckle notes, lively acidity ending with mineral character. Nice!

My second bottle of this, and a few more months of bottle age have helped. It’s got a little grassy thing, but it’s very subdued and more sweet than sharp. Some nice ripe fruit, and a hint of vanilla. In the mouth it’s rounded and soft, very polite for an SB. Nice wine to help the cooking along.

Decent little California sb. Less grass than some of it’s counterparts. Silky and nice. Mellowed melon and partly pomelo.

Jul 25th, 2021Gotta let this warm up and air out or else the pungent herbal cat-pee is overwhelming. But if you do that it shows more nuance and other aspects. A little musky gooseberry fruit, some very subtle oak in the background, some lanolin notes. Very white Graves like. Round textured, with a nice, toasty backdrop. Good balance at 13.7%.
