October 3, 2018 - A good bottle, showing a dominant minerality that shot through the lovely pear and citrus fruit. Well balanced and composed. Not as fresh and lively as I might have wished for, but very good wine.

April 11, 2018 - Not a good showing. On the nose I found odd aromas, nothing to indicate a flawed wine, but just a lot of reduction for a wine of this type. It blew off but the wine never showed all that much aromatically, and on the palate either. I have to think that this is not a representative bottle.
