April 15, 2023 - This one proved to be little challenging. It needed couple of hours and room temperature to open up and show its fruit. Mid yellow colour. Very mineral nose, with lemon peel, almonds and green apple showing as it warmed up. Concentrated and focused mouthfeel that remained from beginning to end. Long finish. Not easy wine to drink but quite rewarding in the end. No need to rush.

March 16, 2023 - I thought this was drinking at top form. Rich, creamy, full of stuffing. Not at all a delicate wine but more refined than many California chards. This is drinking great now without a hit of premix but no reason to wait on this. Enjoy it now.

September 30, 2022 - Beautiful Corton Charlemagne with great intensity and rich minerality. Very satisfying and hedonistic!

February 5, 2022 - Grapefrukt och citron och någon lätt aggressiv vit blomma, fresia? Rätt hög syra och liksom energi i vinet med grapefrukt och viss kritighet. Inte särskilt mycket av det förväntade brynta smöret eller popcornen, mer som en diskret brödighet. Relativt kort eftersmak. Saknar lite komplexitet och wow.
