  Consistent notes. Very little change in four years.

  Alive, if a bit light...perhaps tired. Some mineral & lemon to the nose, which show on the med palate. Dried white orchard fruits & lemon reemerge alongside med acid, riverstones, and a touch of bitterness. Not bad, but I'd say time to drink

  Decanted for 20 minutes, chilled. Not quite as good as our previous bottle back in May of 2022 as the wine showed continued aging. The color was a clear medium yellow - darker than previous bottles. The nose was heavy with lemon and minerality. The medium bodied palate was dominated by the lemon (juice and crème), accompanied by minerality and some green apple. The acidity was searing, and a bit more than needed to balance. I hope this showing was just bottle variation, but I would recommend drinking up.

  This is a great showing of this bottling, but alas it’s my last one. 😢

  Decanted for 30 minutes based on our previous TN in July 2021. This bottle showed as good as - but not any further developed than - that previous bottle.
  The color was a clear light straw. The nose was heavy with chalky minerality, some citrus, and a hint of honey. The medium bodied palate was dominated by lemon citrus, lemon crème and minerality, with some green apple, and a touch of honey. The acidity was searing, but nicely balancing, and the last few sips were as good as the first. This wine will hold for several years.
