April 4, 2020 - Lots of lemon and lime, some stone fruit, a mild spice component and chalky minerality, with fresh, lively acidity and very good length. Very fresh and quite unique. The wine has fleshed out and gained weight over the last two years. Another great bottle! Good value! Highly recommended.

May 10, 2018 - Really unique wine, I'd have to agree with other tasters. Excellent dry, fruity, plenty of acid, and even a slight frizante impression. I'd expect additional complexity to emerge with at least two more years of aging.
