January 23, 2024 - The minerality here veered too much into petrol for me and eclipsed the fruit. Beautiful structure and acid bones. Hint of floral jasmine on the finish. Not gonna fault this for what it is, but it was not enjoyable for me tonight.

Rather deep beautiful golden colour
Intense bouquet of minreality, Riesling flowers and ripe yellow fruits, very interesting
Harmonious palate, h-A, h-B, dry, quite full bodied and flavorful, long fruity/mineral finish.

July 21, 2021 - Aroma av fersken. Fet konsistens, floral med behagelig syre og hint av eple. Tørr utgang.

December 19, 2020 - Absolute trace amount of TCA, not enough to totally kill the wine. What was showing was very precise, sharp, with otherwise obvious but unfortunately muted fruit.

On the nose, lovely salinity, sour lychee, and peach. On the palate, fantastic acidity, excellent density, but somehow not harmonious...loads of wet stone minerality and nice salinity, but missing something. I'm going to give this the benefit of the doubt and call it bottle shock.
