  August 16, 2013 - Not sure I agree with Salil on this one. The wine's texture was remarkable. Incredibly lacy, almost as if it were gossamer. But the acidity was totally lacking. I found no acidic spine of which Salil speaks. And if it had just a touch more acid, this wine would have blown my mind. Perhaps I caught it in a dumb phase. But I am really sad it wasn't there, because otherwise, this wine was really texturally stunning. Instead, it felt a little two-dimensional, and perhaps a touch too sweet.

  July 14, 2013 - Still incredibly primary, the aroma's surprisingly grapey with honeyed and floral accents, and on the palate it's a seamless combination of fresh citrus fruits, peaches and riper, more tropical flavours, honey and slate with a vibrant acid spine beneath keeping it very lively, precise and refreshing despite the high sweetness.
