    November 9, 2017 - A previous bottle I opened in August 2017 was dull and flat, and suffering from the first stages of premox. It was way over the hill and clearly time to drink up and move on asap. So I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by this latest bottle. Bags of freshness and purity with hints of lemony citrus and white flower. On the finish it's a complex mix of minerals and stone flavours and in many ways is Chablis-like in character. In no way is this a blockbuster, but it is so cool and elegant. The previous bottle was one to forget, whereas this sample is one to remember. It will be interesting to see which camp the next bottle falls in. Either way, there is no point in extending the cellar time as it's on the money now.
