Normally I love this wine (and Mike's Compagni-Portis white) with some age on it, but this 13 was not as fresh as I would have expected. Beautifully perfumed nose of citrus, flowers, and lanolin, but it's a bit dried out on the palate with some spicey lemon and the alcohol poking through quite a bit on the fairly bitter finish. Either this bottle is slightly off or its time to start drinking these up. 2 left - I'll check in on another one towards the beginning of the summer.

A total unique wine in every way! The texture is electrifying yet soft. The flavors are bright yet calming to take you to a good place. At age six, this wine is in a perfect drinking place. Mike Officer is the master behind this gem. Sadly there will be a new winemaker accessing the fruit from Monte Rosso. Mike’s Midas touch will certainly be missed. Awesome juice!

Crisp and nice balance with stone fruit, pear and acidity

Excellent. Drank past suggested date but still held well.

Drinking beautifully right now. The table couldn't believe the price point on this bottle. Mikes white wows again.
