August 11, 2021 - - Yellow gold color with medium forming legs and aromas of honey, apple and oak. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of lemon, peach and apple with a light/medium body. Smooth texture with a medium finish.

September 12, 2019 - This has come together nicely since I last opened a bottle. Pineapple, peach, pear, honeysuckle, lots of stone, white pepper and maybe a touch of cedar/sandalwood in the finish. Less rounded, more austere than Arneis from Piedmont, but this is its own thing and not an attempt at imitation. Very nice and high QPR.
