June 16, 2019 - Still super fresh. Lemon and herbs. Tight. Remarkably elegant with restrained power. No alcohol or extracted hard edges. Perfect balance of acidity.

September 16, 2018 - Pineapple and coconut on the nose, some other fruits, very enticing. Initially, on the palette somewhat sweet and full bodied. On the finish, transitions to bright acidity and finally turns to a bitterness... Could've been off putting, but I found the whole experience novel and exciting.

March 15, 2018 - Suspect that I may have accelerated the development on this bottle when pulling from the cellar and leaving in sock drawer for 2 months - but beautiful deep gold liquid is hard to take your eyes off of in the glass. The bouquet sung with notions of apricot, orange blossoms, acacia, peaches and cream, and lemon oil. There was a touch of tertiary minerality hiding in the background that I couldn’t quite peg. I would bottle this as a fragrance for my wife if I could. The wine was robust across the palate and carried some substatial weight, but the perfectly balanced acid line left an impressively clean palate - pairing perfectly with our brandade and smoked whitefish. A lengthy finish with no cloying viscosity left us wringing out the bottle before our next course.

February 14, 2018 - Super fresh. Notes consistent with bottle 12/16. I like the fennel descriptor. Impresses with elegance. A touch of enlivening extract on the finish. Not heavy.

January 13, 2018 - Left open, in the bottle for about three hours. Initially very tight. At around 50-55F eventually showed honey and some floral aspects. Bright acidity mouth feel was full.
