  Drinking nicely. Somewhat subtle flavors, savory, nutty and waxy. Food (roast chicken) pairs beautifully. The acid sticks out on the finish a bit.

  Aromas of lanolin, vegetable oil, raw almond, vague citrus, crisp yellow apple, underripe strawberry and pineapple, airy herbs and flowers, stone dust... juicy and succulent on the palate, fresh and lively, deep cutting acid line, subtly mineral and herbal. Beautiful finish stains and grips lightly, a milky and nutty note (raw almond again?) is quite interesting, and the way tart fruit notes persist is very impressive. A fabulous Falanghina by any standard. Worth the asking? Yes. Great qpr? No, but still well worth it, if you ask me. Where else can you get a Falanghina from Steve Matthiasson? I would drink this soon, in the next year or two, but this has impeccable balance, so who knows, it might be worth following for a long time...

  Medium straw color. Fantastic nose of ripe lemons, white peach, honeysuckle, powdery crushed rocks, citrus zest. Really pretty. Similar flavors on the palate with surprising intensity of fruit and mouthwatering acidity. This wine drinks big yet light at the same time. Long finish. Very impressive and hope this wine becomes a staple of the Matthiasson lineup.

  Color: light straw with green reflexes
  Nose: i find tart apple to be the most dominant note; there certainly are yellow flowers here, as well as peteichor and some citrus
  Palate: medium-high acidity on a medium-light body in good balance. Medium alcohol. Confirms the nose
  Finish: medium
  
  The thing that kills me here is the typicity. Spot on but from california. This has a good deal of structure but it drinks absolutely perfect nos, slightly chilled. Seafood - and shellfish like say red shrimp - are great matches

  Fantastic, and perhaps even the standout among the Matthiasson whites. Citrus, salty, a bit honeyed after 24 hours open. Paired brilliantly with braised chicken with lemon, thyme, and capers.
