May 24, 2023 - quite not interesting for me, nose is reduced, palate a bit heavy with a touch of sweetness, not what I was expecting

December 7, 2022 - Excellent and a 'wow' wine for the sub-$30 USD price. Drank beautifully over two nights. Other TNs do it well. Mineral with ripe lemon and an ever building, long, textural finish. Impeccable balance. Several years left in the tank on this one.
This was sipped on its own both nights. I've got to make this a pairing with a white flesh fish with a sauce that includes some lemon (cream).
