Very interesting wine. Almost drinks more like chenin with honeyed apple and marmalade notes dominating the palate. Definitely benefits from air, which helped focus the flavors and bring out a little more acidity.

Really good. Lemon candy, butter cookie, and vanilla. Also, vivacious and green.

Happy New Year! 🥳🍾🎊🎉🍷

I will only say, this is stealing @$40.

Great viscosity, honeysuckle, lemon, lime zest, white & yellow stone fruits, saline, volcanics, limestone, amazing chalk with yellow lilies and spring flowers. Cool stream acidity. Excellent structure, tension and balance of fruit & earth. Persists endlessly.

A bit creamy on the mouth and nose, apricot, a touch of matchstick and leather strap. Fantastic finish of crushed mineral and crisp acid. Lengthy and generous in weight.
