    September 29, 2017 - Mountain freshness, mineral, floral, good weight, absolutely lovely for drinking now, don't know if it will get any better than this.

    August 23, 2016 - On the nose - acacia and some floral nuances, very clean and fresh, awesome. In the mouth quite intense and energetic, a touch oily just to make things even more interesting. Finished kinda bitter - so viognier typical. Overall one of the best viognier wines I've ever drank, tuned old world style, in top condition now and possibly for couple years more.

    July 13, 2015 - De coloração dourado cintilante aos olhos e com presença de pernas. Nariz limpo, em desenvolvimento e de média intensidade, com notas típicas de flores brancas, frutas em caroço (pêssegos, damascos), maçã verde, flor de laranjeira, tangerina, melão cantaloup, camomila e doce de damasco sobre um sutil carvalho. Sápido, médio corpo, com acidez incomum, pouca untuosidade e elevada alcolicidade, que é equilibrada por uma poderosa concentração da fruta ao palato. Termina enaltecendo os pêssegos, os melões e a madeira em um final razoavelmente persistente, embora deixe a desejar mais complexidade. Tem concentração de fruta suficiente para mais 2 anos, mas mão precisa de mais tempo em adega. Com Frango à Bresse. 87 GGP

    April 4, 2015 - Very fresh and high on acidity for a Viognier. Typical notes of peach, honey, bacon(!), orange flowers and bergamot. Long finish and powerful concentration. A great wine that doesn't need more time in the cellar I think.
