September 27, 2019 - Had this in NYC at four horseman. Unfortunately the first wine was corked and came off as sour (the fruit was killed which really made the acidity apparent) however the second bottle was singing out of the gate and even better after 30 minutes in decanter. The wine really reminds me of a well made Savennières. With great acid, backed with classic honey, wool, and touch of synthetic plasticesque note. This wine is nowhere close to being tired but is in a great spot to drink today.
