  October 13, 2023 - Infanticide. All the parts are there but they all stick out awkwardly with no cohesion. Does get better with each hour of air. Suspect this will be much better years down the road.

  July 22, 2023 - Early taster. Very good indeed. Fresh mountain stream stuff. Loads of grapefruit and lime. Flinty. And just such a rapier like acidity. Long. Now to wait for the development, very promising, much more to come.

Not much complexity has emerged yet, but this has a lot of raw power. If the three days it spent in the fridge are any indication, this has a long line ahead of it.

  August 22, 2022 - I would be lying if I said I wasn’t extremely excited to open this wine and taste my first 2021 Riesling. There has been so much hype about this vintage and I am really looking forward to starting to get my own impressions about the 2021 vintage.
  This wine was everything that I hoped it would be, from one of my favorite producers and from a new and much talked about vintage.
  Complex and beautiful aromas of smoked herbs, sea breeze, and mandarin oranges on the nose gave a wonderful indication of the fireworks that were coming on the palate.
  This wine was all about juxtaposition and absolute balance. A beautiful mix of ripe fruit and super bright acidity, all while being very delicate and filigreed. Notes of ginger spiced apples, piquant cara cara oranges, wet slate, and finishing with a cooling sensation of mint on the long and lip smacking finish. The wine was deep and long while absolutely ethereal all at the same time, boggling the mind and senses in a way that one is left enthralled with what this utterly delicious wine had to say.
  This was a spectacular start to my exploration into the Rieslings from 2021. I am VERY excited to continue digging into these wines!
