Occasional tasting group: "Terroir or bottles with a story" (@ TBa): Very special wine. Barnyard, toasted oak and minerals in the bouquet. Also special in the mouth. Toasted oak and minerals again. Ok acidity. Altogether I don't know what to think. Never tasted something like this before. At this moment it is pleasurable and the toasted oak gives the impression of luxury, but on the other hand I wonder if the juice can manage the oak in the longer term. Anyway, for the pleasure now 87 and I consider that to be very high for a Dutch wine.

Weekly tasting group #032; A mixed set of white wines. (@ CvR): Bouquet with melon, honey and minerals. On the palate soft citrus, clove and well integrated oak. A special and aromatic wine and I like it.
