    April 14, 2024 - Good bottle, plan to drink the other in the next year or two. Acid was a little light for the blue cheese, but still enough there to hold up.

    October 20, 2023 - Ripe nose with plums, honey, and a touch of spice. The palate is rich and round, initially with a sense of perhaps low acidity. But there is a creeping tang as the finish develops, leading to long waves with ripe pink grapefruit. Delightful wine in early maturity. It's perhaps not the most complex, but the quality is high and it is very satisfying.

    September 30, 2023 - Deep, golden color but not overly oxidized. It continues the trend of leaner and tasty but it wants for more acidity.

    April 7, 2023 - 4/7/23 Riesling Tasting (Vinum): Drank alongside of a total 18 Rieslings, starting from dry to sweet. Kevin brought this bottle.

    Palate of honey laden mirabelle plums, yellow peaches, and sweet dried apricot. Reminds me of the luscious fruit notes of a Sauternes but without the burnt sugar. Slightly figgy jam. Luscious and sweet, still in great balance with mouth watering acid in the background, albeit this tastes like the sweetest wine today. 94

    December 10, 2022 - Powerful aromas of apple, creamy banana, and briny oyster shell. Medium viscosity. Lovely co-mingling of ripe apples, asian pear, and a hint of kerosene. Throw in the usual Riesling prickle and a mouth-cleansing acidic finish. Vibrant and fresh. Drink or hold.
