January 6, 2023 - on opening, reduction finely integrated wood, elevated acidity, minerality and tart lemon and apple all suggest another white burg imitator, but with an hour of air the lemon and white peach fruit stands apart and this really shows its spanish character. fascinating, thoughtful and delicious

August 17, 2022 - This is the kind of wine I really like. High acidity, minerality, reach, and balanced.

June 15, 2022 - Blanco supplied for our final Xtremo blind tasting of the season. No one guessed this right, but a few did guess Spain as country of origin. Quite acidic, with lots of stone fruit and some citrus. Nice freshness to this wine. Also, a very long, tart finish. I found it on the viscous side and guessed it to be either a Loire chenin blanc or a chablis. I liked this wine, and think it's drinking quite well, particularly given its youthfulness.

April 11, 2022 - Chablis-like, but more of tropical fruits. Integrated and complex already at young age. Very good.
