July 18, 2023 - My last bottle (I’ve been through more than a case of these). This isn’t the freshest, but still holding on well. Rich citrus fruit, some almondy notes show oxidation creeping in, chalky mineral finish with just a touch of petrol. B+/B.

March 2, 2022 - I’ve been through a lot of these, most pretty fresh, a couple quite oxidized, this is more mature than most but still enjoyable. Good acids, citrus and herbs, with some petrol and almond notes making its age show Not best bottle, but quite fun. B/B+
