    February 3, 2024 - A similar experience to ACYSO; this was quite dark out of the bottle and seemed advanced. Ripe stone fruit, some apple, nuts, and honey. Great to have tried.

    February 1, 2024 - BYOB dinner and then some; 2/1/2024-2/2/2024 (Avalon, Amsterdam): [Tasted blind] The petrol took me to riesling, but the acidity made me doubt it. This wine was on my bucket list, but the showing of tonight did not justify that spot. It felt too advanced for its age, a bit tired. Missing some tension, especially for riesling (and for a wine of this status). Medium intensity with petrol, lemon, lime, honey, linoleum. Ripe. Medium+ acidity, medium+ finish

    October 18, 2023 - too young but a very coherent wine with awesome aging potential, try again 2030 +

    August 29, 2023 - Tuesday (Chicago, IL): Surprisingly dark in colour and coming across as advanced, though this was still a great wine in and of itself. It just seemed more mature than I would have expected for a 2012. The nose initially shows a burnished, stone fruit quality, even though there is still lots of riesling-driven fruit aromatics and flavours. We put it in a decanter -- I think that was the right move, as this actually became more shapely as it got more air. The minerality and brightness gained strength, and the last sips were best.

    July 28, 2023 - Fragrant nose, with a whiff of kerosine at the end. Multi-layered on the palate. Notes of green apples, lemon with a touch of honey. Balanced acidity and alcohol. Still fresh! Long finish. Paired well with an Omakase meal.
