So lemon! Profound lemon flavor with acidity. Decent bubbles but abated over the course of the day. I expect that anyway. This changed over the course of five hours and the acidity leveled off, putting this in better balance. Really nice and savored every sip. Like how this evolved. Medium lemon color. Needs time to appreciate this as it changes so much. Sip slowly. Served in the forties and it was a different wine as it warmed. Flavor is here. Think I had it at a good time.

Smoking good and drinking great! Very fresh, energetic, good cut and excellent definition. This has citrus fruit in abundance, with some floral notes and a kiss of honey on the finish. Hard to put this down, very attention-grabbing in that sense. All in all a solid value for this level of quality, as well.

Nose - butterscotch which Erica immediately picked up on. Perhaps creme brulee and hazelnut. Rich Chardonnay nose. Mouth - hazelnut, marzipan, with just a hint of brown sugar followed by a long puckering lemon finish. An interesting combo of rich and sour. Probably would make for an interesting still wine as well and likely has many years of life.

I think Soyhead captured this quite nicely. Still quite young. Nice tension between richness and freshness. Don’t drink this to cold.

Drinking nicely, great acidity and a mixture of citrus and orchard fruits. Really enjoyable now but will improve
