  January 1, 2024 - Really tastes like a white version of their rosé. Medium (-) intensity. Oily, lithe texture. Grapefruit, canteloupe. Very fresh and light. Nice acidity but in no way ripping. Drank it with a good chill (on ice) and that felt like the right way to serve. Would be great as a summer patio wine if serving oenophiles. I think I would prefer this to the rosé.

  November 20, 2023 - Very unique wine. Tastes like a Bordeaux blanc but with tamed acidity. Seems to be tightly coiled at the moment. Delicious to drink now but I think this will be best in 2-3 years plus. 91-93.

  November 10, 2023 - A delicious combination of ripe yellow pear, yellow plum, grapefruit and lemongrass with sweet oak spice. A lingering freshness and a hint of sweaty sauvignon-y character. While it’s broad and rich in texture, it’s surprisingly lithe and bright on the palate, concentrated but not massive, with decent acidity and a bitterness on a finish which lasts and lasts. Merges some of the better parts of a Condrieu and a Bordeaux Blanc- very enjoyable.
