    April 6, 2024 - upon opening it was tight and opaque in taste, but changed pretty early on .... think it needs a decant in bottle 30mins on ice ..

    pour sip and let it unfold as the temp rises ever so slightly.

    End result over many various unfurls - orange peal, lemon drop, brioche apricot honeydew - just goodness

    March 6, 2024 - This was the last of a 4 bottle dinner with friends from Bandon. Medium bodied; multiple subtle but evocative flavors of apricot, citrus, sweet spices, rose floral notes that was refreshing and alluring to the last sip. Not quite "absolutely indispensable" but close enough.

    November 4, 2023 - Awesome stuff. Not my favorite SQN white vintage, but great stuff nonetheless.

    May 30, 2023 - Similar to prior notes after PNP, except seems to be at peak drinking; delicious, drink or hold
