  April 5, 2024 - My first "serious" Israeli wine and I was really surprised at the quality, especially for $30 or so (was a gift from a friend.) Especially being mostly Viognier, I was expecting a very fruity, perhaps soft-styled white; instead this was pretty chiseled with lots of cool stony/chalky minerality, somewhat reductive but still leaving a touch of room for the lemon custard, orange zest, vanilla, etc. Almost like a steely, flinty chardonnay character with more Chenin and Vio-like fruit. I could be underrating it, for the price. Deep and rich but still very serious.

  November 27, 2021 - Thanksgiving on the Mountain; 11/25/2021-11/28/2021 (Park City, Utah): Showing really well with tons of layered fruits (mango, peach, poached pear, lemon), a bracing acidity, nice rich body and a great granite like minerality. Drinking well but can see it doing just fine over a couple of years
