First time having wine from this producer, and it was spectacular. Very intense and full (especially for 12% alcohol!), some wax, ripe yellow and tropical fruit, nuts. A great experience.

BYOB dinner and then some; 2/1/2024-2/2/2024 (Avalon, Amsterdam): [Tasted blind] Great to taste this with some age, great wine. Medium intensity with piccalilli (not my aroma call, but a great descriptor), savoury, herbs, lemon, apple. Medium+ acidity, long finish. 92-93
In great balance and I always like it when a wine is not fruit driven

M&PD Tasting: Italy (Seattle, WA, USA): Cool wine that took a while to open up. Ironically the more air it saw the more reductive, smoky and flinty it seemed to get. I could have spent a day with this one.

Incredibly unique, hard to describe, lemon, spice, floral, flinty mineral notes developed with time, lush viscous

MPD dinner at Nell’s. Big and oily. Nose a bit muted.
