  March 15, 2024 - This was seriously impressive. Incredible green melon and peach (no citrus), with some faint notes of blackberry. In the background, there’s a lot of sweet-but-not-cloying honey. Very vibrant, and the acid is there, though you kind of need to think about it to notice. The purity of the fruit and the honey is fantastic, and this absolutely exhibits that prum thing of being weightless and full bodied at the same. Although there’s nothing remotely tertiary, I think the wine is in a great spot at the moment.

  February 2, 2024 - I'm surprised by MFW review declaring this wine as one to drink young. The bottle I drank tonight had signs of minor seepage and a slightly protruding cork so I set my expectations low. To my surprise, it opened lemony and primary. I put it in a decanter to loosen it up and it slowly tilted more savory until it was like a barely caramelized piece of tropical fruit. The mouthfeel remained light and airy throughout. I think this could be really special in another 5 years or so as its savory side gets a chance to express itself.

  September 19, 2021 - Sunday round 2 (Chicago, IL): Surprisingly light for the vintage, with very good lift and a very easygoing disposition. Also, this is nowhere as sweet as I would have expected it to be. This doesn't have as much intense minerality as I might expect, though you do see some of it on the back end in the form of a chewy texture. Obviously very young now and still mostly primary.

  June 23, 2020 - Moden nese med rikt fruktbilde. Rik også i munn med en begynnende integrert syre. Ikke den mest livlige årgangen, men godt er det uansett.

  June 17, 2020 - bit sweeter then expected for a Kabinett - petroleum / oily nose and mouthfeel - tropical fruit complexity - slight aging tones already
