November 25, 2023 - Buttery, vanilla, white flower, savoury slight reduction, good mineral at the finish, beautifully fresh, lively acidity, well balance with good mineraility. Impressive white

June 25, 2023 - The cork on this bottle also had moved up during travel, but this one shows no effects. Bright acidity to frame apples and pears. Great poise. The house toast is noticeable and should integrate in time. Great wine and worth your attention.

April 29, 2023 - The cork had slid up some during shipment, but there is no sign of oxidation. Still, this bottle is much milder compared to the previous bottles. This is not a bad thing, it turns out, as the wine is a little more relaxed and has expanded. The apple and ripe citrus character of 2020 whites is so delicious in these young wines that I really hope it stays with them as they age.

April 26, 2023 - Wildman Grand Tour (RPM - Chicago IL): Walkaround tasting. Lots of green and yellow apple with some pear. Big and rounded start, slightly tart in the middle for now, this needs a few years to settle down. Very long finish. I like the 92-94 point potential here, better 2026 forward.

March 25, 2023 - Bright intense citrus and apples. The acidity drives the fruit all the way to the finish and beyond. Still young and in need of 4-6 years. Highly recommended.
