  Really interesting wine. I recommend serving slightly cooler than cellar temp/chilled.
  
  Nose of honey, apple turnover, orange rind. Palate is quite smooth and viscous, with a healthy dose of salinity. Finish is quite long and even a bit tart with lemon.
  
  Pleasant enough now, and I suspect this will put on a little weight over the next few years

  Beautiful bouquet of fresh red fruits (cherry, pomegranate, and strawberry), florals, and a kick of spice. Young, a big coiled, but approachable; we did not decant or otherwise prepare the wine — off with the cork and into the glass, followed over 2 hours.
  
  Nice entry with a bit of black tea. Acidic backbone to mellow over time. Long finish which is quite well integrated. I’m very impressed by how strongly the WS Verte bottling show. Great vineyard sources and restrained approach.
  
  ETA: saved a glass for night 2. It didn’t shake any of the “weight”, but the red fruits are a bit more restrained

  Strawberry, plum, cranberry, five spice dominate the nose and palate. A touch ripe. Needs a few more years in the bottle. Long finish with grippy tannin.
