  May 13, 2022 - Medium straw color - rose tint
  Medium aromas of gooseberry and strong fresh herbal notes
  Medium bodied with palate of ripe lemon/ tarragon and grass
  Medium plus acidity - laser sharp with medium alcohol and medium length
  Little dilute on the palate and a little out of synch
  Not sure if this might improve with time - almost feels tight
  This was better next day so would prob hold

  February 2, 2022 - Pale ('white' not golden) and very clear in the glass, pure white wine on the palate--no wood, no citrus or apricot or pineapple, etc. or highly floral notes. In some ways hard to describe! Perhaps a hint of pear on the nice finish. Very good.

  January 26, 2022 - Wow, what a great bottle of white wine. Somewhere between Viognier, and Sauvignon Blanc (the Garagiste says it’s Sauvignon Blanc). Yum, only problem is I’m running out, with no offer of the 2020’s yet.

  February 5, 2021 - Presuming that this bottle is sound and healthy (and so is the taster), a dramatic and disappointing drop-off compared to the prior three. It still has a nice chiseling and texture, but much of the nice bouquet and fruit seems to have lost intensity and persistence. Can a VdF blanc have a dumb phase? If not, there’s either huge bottle variation or this just may be on its way out.
  5+9+15+6= 85
