February 19, 2024 - This is a great wine! The acid and sweetness have such balance. Myriad fruit, flower, and, mineral traits show, many times all at once.

January 20, 2024 - Golden. Nose and palate with apricots, flowers, lime, nuts, black tea and spices. Medium intense nose. On the palate it shows more vigor and intensity. Great balance of acidity and sweetness. Long. 5/13/18/10. -2035+ if perfectly cellared since release.

August 19, 2023 - Popped and poured. Lovely cool floral nose. Medium bodied, fleshy with good acidity. One the palate lime, citrus, petrol, cashews, and a little honeysuckle. Mature but still loads of life ahead. Really delicious.

August 18, 2023 - Golden yellow in color. Aromas of yellow and orange citrus, yellow peaches, florals, smoky herbs and honeysuckle. A sweet and fruity palate shows ripe honey poached yellow orchard pit fruits, herbs, quite good acidity and a long perfectly off-dry finish.

February 4, 2023 - Popped and poured. Another great bottle of this. Early maturity. Great focus and acidity. Lime, pear, tropical fruits minerals come through. There is a vivacity and freshness to this which makes it so easy to drink now.
