October 15, 2017 - Baked peach, ripe pineapple, stewed apricot, ripe cantaloupe, yellow apple, wet hay, wet forest floor, lemongrass, wet rye bread, mineral water, light botrytis. Med+ alcohol with some phenolic bitters. Needs at least 3 more years to fully develop. I couldn't keep my hands off!

May 18, 2015 - Vinosphere Tasting: Very youthful, yellow florals and spice. Medium bodied with medium acidity. Pretty closed up.

April 24, 2014 - Aroma: curious herbal nose with stony notes.
Palate: flint, balsam and tarragon flavors with crisp acidity and a touch of bitterness. -
