October 6, 2020 - Notes of green apples, high residual sugars. Petrol on the nose...just a little too much sugar for me. Better on day 2.

October 12, 2019 - AP #14 - Surprisingly, this was very serene on pop and pour. Almost clear color in the glass, similar to Prum kabis. Green apple. Acid comes out with time in the glass. This is less expressive than on release.

June 25, 2019 - At $20 a freakish value. Fresh zesty nose. Lemon grass, a gentle floral note and a little smoke. I love Milkmansteve's "Impossible to describe the paradox here - brilliant acidity, candied green apples and raisins (but without botrytis), profound density of flavors, yet bordering on Kabinett lightness and feather weight." So true. There is wonderful density of juicy almost tropical fruit (peaches, apricots, candied grapefruit) and coconut cream that floats on an acidic cloud. Absolutely stunning and the price boggles the mind.
