March 3, 2023 - Big and Bold. Very aromatic and in your face. Some will probably find it over the top, but we all liked it.

November 21, 2022 - Big, unctuous, more fruity than floral, and fantastic. Closest to a Condrieu of any new world viognier I’ve had. (To be fair, that sample size is ten or fewer). Just enough acidity and minerality to make it a nice food wine.

November 6, 2022 - Very consistent vintage to vintage. The 2020 is showing a touch more acidity than prior years. Still very ripe and dense. Abundant apricot/stone fruit and a hint of minerality.
