November 15, 2021 - Pop and pour. I could have sworn that it had been longer since my last btl, but the data don't lie. Fantastic with our harissa chickpea stew; by itself, slightly less compelling. On the nose: salt, lemon, lees, and wet stone. On the palate: fantastic acidity, lime, wet stone and olive brine, but weirdly oily...a lovely mix, if ever-so-slightly disjointed density and acid.

March 13, 2021 - Pop and pour. Notes from 1 hr open, paired with vegan mapo tofu. On the nose: soft underripe peach, green apple, loads of wet stone, pollen and soft citrus blossom. On the palate: fantastic acidity, green apple, soft honey, peach, just a hint of sweetness. Ok density at the moment...still a bit shrill and needs more time. Nevertheless, a good pairing.

Some vegetables in the aftertaste and a lot of minerals. Very high quality no doubt but to my taste it lacked a little body. Again this could be beautiful with age. For now I liked the green capsule better
