  May 8, 2021 - Nothing stands out. Soft white flower and stone fruit nose with a very slight unctuous feel. I think the fruit is waning but hard to say as I haven’t had any of this vintage at an earlier dating.

  February 25, 2018 - Nose is rich with candied lemon rind, lemon mousse and chalky minerality. The mouthfeel of this five year old white wine is astonishing. The texture is like melted butter! The fruit is fresh and crisp on the attack with high acidity. The oak is noticeable, but not overpowering. The palate follows the nose closely, but adds more complexity with green apple, pear and floral elderberry. The lemon mousse on the palate is gorgeous! The attack moves on to a slightly bitter, chalky mid-palate of key lime and a fruity finish that lasts forever. The few years of bottle age significantly improved the mouthfeel of this wine.

  August 6, 2016 - Much like the 2012. A little austere when cold (from refrigerator), but as it warms up it blossoms with citrus, stone fruit, apple, melon, floral, herbs, almond. Crisp acidity, medium finish. Refreshing.
