  July 9, 2023 - Really enjoyed this wine--bright with some tropical fruit flavors coming through clearly. Not particularly sweet, with just enough to emphasize the fruit

  November 25, 2021 - Day 1: The aroma is the star here floral, slate and pear. The palate is very thin and lacks fruit, maybe a bit of pear. Floral and dust on this short finish. Not sure why I bought this wine to be honest as the cellar tracker average is low overall and now just got even lower with my review. 84 points
  Day 2: Better on day 2 especially the palate. Slate, pear, sour apple and orange peel. Nice acidity and longer finish. It was almost in a dumb phase on day 1 but in a much better place now. 88 points
  Day 2.5: Had success with this last week. More peach which I love in German wines along with honeysuckles, slate, minerals, sour apple and wafer. Certainly even better than day 2.0. 90 points
  Day 3: Delicious featuring peach, slate, sour apple, minerals, orange peel, lime and touch of sweetness on the finish. Nice acidity overall. What an evolution on this wine. 91 points
  Day 3.5: Offers a really interesting dusty quality. Fruits still there along with nice minerality. Will get more. 91 points
  Recommendation: Again never judge a wine based on day 1. This wine had nothing going on day 1 but blossomed into a very nice wine for under $20.00.

  September 16, 2019 - Pale straw/rainwater color. Citrus and floral dominant nose. Peaches on the palate supported by slate and lime/orange citrus. Light-bodied. Very Good.
