  July 5, 2019 - Just superb. Has only gotten better--edgy citrus, preserved lemon, citrus peel, citrus, maybe grapefruit, some softer yellow stone fruits lurking in body, mineral, evolves and deepens with airtime. Slightly pungent light sour notes to start, perfect with food, shift to enrich complexity in a long finish. Enjoyable and different.

  January 21, 2018 - Served with lemon/dill/parm shrimp risotto. Continues to impress. Echo earlier comments--the aged citrus, mineral, slight pungency layers with rich complexity in nose and palate. Long and savory finish, a bit of edge and acid zip yielding interest and drinking pleasure. Great with the food--point/counterpoint to the textures and flavors of the risotto. Definitely on the unusual side of chardonnay renderings. Too I'd say it's aging well.
