  March 1, 2024 - The funk that previously presented as a yougurty cotton candy was subsumed under a more gun flinty, green pepper note that seemed out of place. Quite a bit of bottle variation on these. Still a lovely wine.

  February 3, 2024 - Reductive, Burgundy style Chenin with delicate acidity and soms white fruit aromas. At its peak

  November 1, 2023 - Un bon chenin, tres expressif, encore du bois, noisette, un petit volatil qui ne me derange pas trop mais qui en a dérange certain.

  -- tasted non-blind over 2 to 3 hrs on Day 1; revisited on Day 3 --
  
  NOSE: lemony/orange gueuze; expressive; dandelions.
  
  BODY: medium-light body; medium-light maize color.
  
  TASTE: high acidity; ripe papaya; oak; hint of bitter orange peel; really got going about 2.25 hrs in, losing some oak in favor of the fruit and a supporting fuzzy mineral note; 13% alc. not noticeable; developing, but still seemingly on the upswing. Still rockin' on Day 3, with no signs of degradation. Drink or Hold.
