I've been drinking this since release (probably one a year since then), and, for my palate, it seems to really be in the zone just now; others before it were good, but not nearly as complete. Medium/med+ body, light>med gold color, with fresh, complex aromas that speak to place (minerals) grape, and method. It's off the beaten path, but a worthy diversion, and one that seemed better after a 20 minutes aeration in decanter. Also, benefits from warmer vs. colder serving temp. Can be enjoyed on its own, but, unsurprisingly, better with food. 2 bottles left, that I'll drink within the next 2-3 years.
