A very satisfying sauv blanc: crystalline, rich yet balanced, ready to drink right out of the gate. Buy more.

Another fascinating wine from Rod. I'll admit that I didn't much like this upon release, so I fell to the back of the cellar. On a whim (and because the cellar, post-holiday, is depleted), I opened the thing and was very pleasantly surprised. A handful of years has given this wine body, depth, and intrigue. While still a tad hollow on the palate, what is there screams with character, although maybe not what one might call charm. Lemon curd and clove honey with a reductive quality.
