Sweet Jesus, with a little air, totally nuts. -

March 18, 2021 - Very interesting stuff. Aromas of quince, apple jelly, kumquat, lemon candy, sage, rosemary, petrichor, rubber... super high acid, mineral and herbal, long and tangy. Wirz strikes my heart again! I am getting to be obsessed with this vineyard.

November 4, 2020 - I’m on the fence about this wine on whether I like it or not. It desperately needs food with it, maybe a chicken piccata. The nose was minerals with lemons, with a light hint of petrol. On the pallet, it is all acid with a structured wine behind the curtain of acid. I looked at the release notes and it states that the grapes came from notoriously high acidic vineyard. The acid did mellow on the third day, but wine oxidized by then. I recommend sitting on these for a while.
