    November 24, 2021 - Medium gold color with pink tint
    Medium plus aromas of green herbs and dry rock primarily with unripe stone fruit in background - not at all fruit driven and very complex
    Medium bodied with rather round mouthfeel due to lees contact? Citrus pith and pear with bitter herbal back palate
    Medium plus acidity and medium alcohol with a nice finish
    Mineral driven wine - I really dig this

    August 8, 2021 - Tart citrus and minerality are what stand out. Really liked it better on its own than with food, as it was a little finicky about what it was paired with. A very nice summer drinker, although $40 for it seems a little stiff.

    July 4, 2020 - Nice nose with citrus, lime, tart stone fruit, and a hint of grassy notes. Lovely acidity with more citrus, grapefruit, and lots of mineral flavors on the palate. Nice finish.

    September 20, 2019 - Quite good and definitely improved with air. Ripe pear, soft herbs, and wonderfully saline. I would wait 1-2 years before opening one.

    August 19, 2019 - Classic Friuli-Venezia Ribolla Gialla, I don't believe anyone who claims to be able to call this as California blind. Almond, pear, and wet stone. Fleshy on the palate, killer acidity, finishes salty. Drink now through 2025.
