December 4, 2022 - Lunch at Jade Court (Chicago, IL): Lean and taut, with a slight green note that's reminiscent of the vein in a snow pea. Nice citric acidity as well, but the texture and complexity is on the thin side, making this not really feel like it's a proper grand cru.

August 1, 2021 - Not quite as convincing as the last bottle I had of this a few years back. The nose shows a little more oak than reduction at this point, as well as some sweet yellow fruit and a bit of a herbal quality that actually evokes the nose of a Mosel GG. The palate is a little thin and lacks the right density and intensity of a grand cru. Nicely drinkable though, not one I would be too interested in aging for too long.

Drinks very well now. -

September 27, 2020 - High on acidity and minerals, citrus galore, this is razor like wine - you can taste the anti-Parker, anti-Rolland Old World style, insisting on the sine qua nin of great acidity in wine; great treat to taste, memorable - and still very young. Thank you, Mie, for bringing this

September 14, 2020 - Tasted double blind. Poured a light straw color. Oh. Snap. The nose is so compelling with strong mineral aromas of crushed rock, star fruit, and lime. The palate gets blanketed with bright tropical fruits, lime-ade and minerals...and minerals...and minerals. So much intensity!! Laser focused acid. Fabulous balance. The finish lasts for several minutes...and you love every second of it. It comes across so young. A tremendous wine.
