    September 11, 2011 - Just as good at home as it was at the tasting room a few weeks ago. Nothing to add to my previous note.

    August 20, 2011 - Boony Doon Cellar Door - Lunch & Tasting (Santa Cruz, CA): 56% Loureiro, 44% Albarino. Pretty nose of lemon zest and white flowers. Crisp, clean, lemony and peachy with great acidity. Delicious and best of the tasting.

    April 22, 2011 - Quite enjoyable medium bodied white - good acidity and nice citrus. Pleased. Low alcohol at 12.5 to boot.

    October 9, 2010 - Great minerality, lemon notes and a hint of gooseberry on the fairly intense nose. Palate of tart citrus, green grass. High acid, long finish with a faint metallic note. Tasted blind I'd have guessed a CA sauv blanc from a slightly cooler region. One of the more impressive efforts from BD that I've tasted recently.

    April 29, 2010 - Pleasant acids, tart citrus, small degree of carbonation on tongue... Part of the DEWN club. Not super excited about it.
