July 12, 2023 - Medium to rich yellow; nice rich nose, some peach; nice rich attack, lots of taste, quite powerful with sufficient acidity to keep it balanced; no “subtleties” or “extras” but straightforward nice

June 2, 2023 - Medium to rich yellow; fresh nose, buttercup, bit of honey; quite rich bold attack, almost too overwhelming, lots of acidity and power, do not look for finesse or gentleness here, it is smack in your face/mouth, power, lots of it and lots of taste, expressive, nothing spared - in this way it is actually quite good and for the right occassion the right choice; perhaps think outdoor barbercue on a slightly windy slightly cold day, where you need a powerful white to make an impression
