  Citrus explosion of lemon with grapefruit as it opened up. Literally makes me pucker after drinking. Interesting, refreshing but not great with food

  Not what I was hoping for, unfortunately. There's some very nice stone fruit at play here, but it's immediately followed by a tidal wave of lemon and a little orange. It's rather like biting into very underripe fruit where the sour hasn't yet been turned to sweet. I love high acidity in a wine, but wow, this is at my limit. Incredibly tangy to the point where it's difficult to notice much else. I think there's some nice mineral here too, but again -- acid bomb. I don't know how much that will ever settle down, but I'm going to give my other bottle some time to mellow.

  A delicious late night bottle at Cuenllas Salesas. Ultra exotic tropical fruit, more yellow than green which I sometimes get in these wines. Nicely integrated acidity, not too sharp, feels like a few grams of sugar but nothing out of balance. Some really exceptional textures here, and interesting mineral notes on the midpalate to add interest. Great rec from the caviste.
