July 21, 2023 - Impressive right after popping the cork. Quince, green apple, marshmallow root, and petrol with well-balanced meyer lemon acidity and a good dose of volcanic soil and minerals on the finish. This was an excellent match with an Italian seafood stew (Fra Diavalo but easy on the spice). The shellfish was just the right thing. Like I’ve experienced with Carricante, this was better towards the warmer end of the spectrum for a white wine. This faded a bit after it was opened and wasn’t as good on day 2, but overall, I was impressed.

February 12, 2023 - Opened this at Gary's. We had the Spanish red prawns, Alaskan King Crab, duck liver, homemade cream-based tagliatelle, seabass, wagyu and pistachio parfait.
Deep gold in colour. Beautiful aromatics of white elder flowers on the nose. On the palate the fresh citrus was a hit; orange peel, fresh lemons, granny smith apples was quite overwhelming.
Energy, acidity and minerality were all available in abundant. Delicately balanced and wonderfully assisted by a well crafted structure.
An awesome wine. Slightly overpowered the food we had for the evening. Nevertheless, a wonderful experience we had with this drink. -

November 29, 2021 - Opened this at Famous Treasure over lunch with a very close ex-colleague.
Pale gold in colour. Notes of citrus (think lemon, orange peel, fresh green apples) and minerals were delicately balanced. A touch of cream in the aftertaste.
When drinking this wine, do not expect energy, power or the wow factor. Instead, look out for the subtle notes and hints and be amazed and impressed by how well crafted this wine is.
