  Light golden color. Wonderfully fresh nose of lemon grass, golden apple, and laundry on the line. Medium light bodied. Blended flavors of golden apple, preserved lemon, scallions, some dried mustard. Great balance with a light, slightly chalky minerality. How is this that good?? Can’t put it down. Could last for a few years sure, but why wait.

  Bright yellow color. Nose is white flowers, lanolin, and cat pee. After the pee blows off, its lemons stewed with black pepper. On the palate, this stuff is amazing. Tart lemon cream and black pepper. Lemon oil and coconut on breathing. Finish lasts forever. Day 2 was not so great as the bottle had a noticeably funky smell I can’t fully place. Burnt plastic? Not quite like the Steinriesler I’m sampling at the same time that is incredible on day 3.

  Didn’t seem to have as much depth of flavor as 2007 and 2008.
