March 18, 2022 - Have seen some variability in this vintage but this bottle was terrific. Sure hints of age which add a sweeter quality to fruit in aromas, but mouthfeel is tight, fresh, and linear. Lovely.

August 8, 2021 - Buttery nose with honeysuckle and poached pears. Crisp melon and apple with a touch lemon and lime. More lime on the finish with a bit of fresh ginger and a hint of oak.

August 5, 2021 - To my surprise, this improved significantly after a few days under vacuvin. It's now leaner, racier, and better balanced. Still sporting a citrusy nose, but a lot of the heavy oak is gone, and the bright acidity makes it light on its feet. In its current state, it would be perfect with fish (grilled or in a light sauce) or a white meat.

July 16, 2021 - Much better after an oxidized bottle. Clean crisp, lemony, medium weight. Enjoyable but not remarkable.
