April 9, 2020 - Wine in the time of Corona Virus - Quarantining in NYC & NH; 3/7/2020-9/1/2020 (NYC/NH): 2nd bottle opened for the Thursday Zoom Happy Hour. I was hoping the first bottle was perhaps an anomaly, but this confirms that the wine is just not for me. The bitterness on the back palate and finish is too off-putting along with a fatter profile lacking enough acidity. Not a repurchase.

March 21, 2020 - Wine in the time of Corona Virus - Quarantining in NYC & NH; 3/7/2020-9/1/2020 (NYC/NH): First time with this producer. I am generally a big fan of Northern Rhone whites, but this one did not float my boat. 100% Marsanne. I found this wine to have a rather unpleasant lingering bitter note on the finish - something akin to grapefruit pith. The entry is more of a fatter style and then followed by the bitter note it just felt disjointed to me. Not a repurchase.
