February 19, 2024 - Drinking great. Good balance of fruit, minerality, acid, and texture. Showing some nice development, this might even get better.

August 14, 2023 - This was drinking really well. Nice stony minerality, orchard fruit. A bit tight on pop and pour but fleshed out and showed some secondary depth as it warmed and opened up. Sad to see my last bottle go

July 17, 2022 - Pale gold. Nose of apple core, grapefruit, white flowers, stone. Layers of etched, deep-reaching flavors of granny apple, white pear, grapefruit, and flint cut with tart stoniness on the palate. Exceptional purity and detail as it warmed up from chilled state. Stony spine balancing bright acidity. Long finish of tart white stone fruit. A great showing.

July 4, 2022 - Wow this is crazy good. Lemon with bright acidity and minerality. Long finish. This wine has years to go still.

July 30, 2021 - Allow about an hour or two of air. Fully resolved. Acid bite slight but there. Slight butterscotch but not in a big way. The character of Porter Bass evident. Easy to drink with fruit just starting to take a background. This has years left in it although mine from the winery to 53 degrees since release. lovely. So enjoyable.
