 Tasted by Jsnelten on 3/4/2023 & rated 92 points: Darker yellow colour, rich ripe aroma, rich taste, good acidity, nice to drink now, could still age because of the acidity and aromatic power (315 views)
 Tasted by Guido L. on 8/17/2019 & rated 92 points: - Yellow color. (1092 views)
 Tasted by Thomas D. on 4/14/2017 & rated 93 points: N: Very elegant, mango, lichee, maracuja, cool and aristocratic mineral nuances, like a kings castle in Portugal after a rain shower...in the sun :)
T: to the point , those guys know how to do it, must visit the Vinyard soon. This is the second bottle that I had the honor to drink, fat and furious ;) (1754 views)
 Tasted by MNig on 11/16/2016 & rated 93 points: Blindverkostung mit Freunden. #3 Gelbe Früchte, grüne und gelbe Stachelbeere, Ananas, pink Grapefruit, Marille, Orangenschale, grüne Netzmelone und rauchig in der Nase. Viel Extrakt im Mund, mit leichter Glycerinnote, reifen, gelben Früchten und einer sehr präsenten rauchig-salzigen Mineralität. Frische aber auch gepufferte Säure, Kräuterwürze, körperreich, erkennbare jedoch gut verpackte 14 Vol.-%. Sehr langer Abgang. Zeigt sich mir zum ersten Mal deutlich offener als in den vergangenen 2 Jahren.

Blind tasting with friends. #3 Yellow fruits, green and yellow gooseberries, pineapple, pink grapefruit, yellow peach, orange peel, green netted melon and smoky on the nose. Lots of extract on the palate, with a slight note of glycerin, ripe yellow fruits and an ever-present smoky-salty minerality. Vivid but also buffered acidity, spiciness, full-bodied, noticeable but well-integrated 14 % abv. Very long finish. This bottle has been the most approachable one in the last 2 years and it seems to finally come around. (1858 views)
 Tasted by WildeMeeuw on 9/23/2015 & rated 90 points: Kleur: Licht strogeel Aroma / bouquet: Citrus, vooral limoen. Subtiele hint van fris tropisch fruit. Lichte mineraliteit, vuursteen. Grassig. Smaak / Afdronk: Verfrissende zuurgraad in combinatie met een rond en filmend mondgevoel, geconcentreerd, indrukwekkend lange afdronk. Algemeen / potentieel: Sauvignon Blanc met concentratie en 'dikte', een unieke en heerlijke combinatie. Eén van mijn favoriete SB's. 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 11 + Smaak / Afdronk: 16 + Algemeen / potentieel: 8 = 90/100

Google Translate:

Color: Light straw yellow Aroma / bouquet: citrus, especially lime. Subtle hint of fresh tropical fruit. Slight minerality, flint. Grassy. Taste / Finish: Refreshing acidity in combination with a round mouthfeel and filming, concentrated, impressively long finish. General / potential: Sauvignon Blanc with concentration and 'thickness', a unique and delicious combination. One of my favorite SBs. 50 + Color: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 11 + Taste / Finish: 16 + General / potential: 8 = 90/100 (2685 views)
 Tasted by MNig on 7/17/2015 & rated 92 points: The bouquet consists of aromas reminding me of sage, white blossoms, yellow fruits, white peaches, red and green gooseberries and wet stone. The wine immediately unleashes its mouth-watering, racy acidity, but maintains a good balance, with a fully body and well-integrated alcohol at 14% abv. On the palate I find aromas of gooseberry, yellow fruits, a certain salty mineral spiciness, sage, smoke and wood. Long-lasting finish. This wine is still young and has plenty of time left. Once again, this cantina manages to amaze me.

In der Nase Aromen von Salbei, weißen Blüten, gelben Früchten, Weinbergspfirsich, rote und grüne Stachelbeere und nassem Gestein. Im Mund sofort rassige, markante Säure, mit einem kräftigen Körper und gut eingebundenen 14 Vol.-%. Auch am Gaumen 'Stachelbeere, gelbfruchtig, pikant-salzig-mineralisch, Salbei, rauchig und Holz. Langer Abgang. Klasse. (1552 views)
 Tasted by phil the agony on 4/10/2015 & rated 90 points: Vin légèrement trouble,un peu de pisse de minet aussi.
Du bois (vieillit partiellement en inox et bois).
Plus typique des Sauvignon blanc que je connais.
Beaucoup plus acide aussi que le Cotat.
Je crois qu'il gagnerait à être conservé encore quelques années.

 Tasted by budh on 11/6/2014 & rated 91 points: A very nice SB, but probably not worth the price. Yellow-green color. Typical SB nose and tastes of grapefruit, grass, minerality. Great mouth-feel. Full bodied, high acidity, long finish. Who needs cat pee?!! (1868 views)
 Tasted by aajder on 6/18/2014 & rated 87 points: The nose is open, showing plenty of citrus with mineral and hints of white flowers.This is light bodied on the palate, with decent concentration and ok finesse. This is a bit too fat, and it lacks verve. Medium length on the finish. (2051 views)
 Tasted by Loren Sonkin on 4/8/2014 & rated 89 points: Helping a friend with a north-east Italian Wine List; 4/3/2014-4/10/2014 (TBD): Green/gold in color. The nose has grapefruits and is slightly grassy. More to me like a Cal SB than anything else. On the palate, it is very intense. One of the few wines I can say that was too intense. To much pinpoint fruit and acidity. I wonder if air calms it down a bit. Its quite good, but perhaps will be even better. Interesting. (8059 views)
 Tasted by Papies on 3/12/2014 & rated 91 points: Lively, fresh very mineral and full of elegance. Has nice citrus edge , light grassy notes to it but the main force here is its minerality. Very pure wine unadulterated by heavy handed winemaking. Pretty solid wine from a solid producer. 91 (1625 views)
 Tasted by djlevin on 9/12/2013 & rated 88 points: Wine Adventure - Alto-Adige, Valpolicella, Soave, Bolgheri, Barbaresco & Barolo; 9/11/2013-9/20/2013 (Italy): Grassy on the nose. Palate of citrus and fresh mown grass, finishing with very noticeable minerality. I was aware of more alcohol than I would prefer. Very strong acidity with a refreshing bite. The nice structure moved the score higher to offset some of the other characteristics. (2806 views)
