  November 1, 2018 - Finally getting around to one of my two, and well, it's got a bit of an aged character, but I don't find it tired for my palate. Medium yellow color. Pretty tight aromatically, with a touch of riesling petrol, wet stone, and lime. Full body, round texture, medium acid and finish, and flavors of lemon, lime, bruised apricot, peach, and minerals. Pretty dry with just a hint of sweetness. I'm enjoying it. Worked well with a spicy pork and tomatillo stew, as well as standalone sipping. Probably drink my other in the near term.

  November 27, 2011 - Loved this today, as a refresher after a 01 BdM and with grilled foods. Slight fllouro green in the glass, green fruits - apple/lime. Balanced and delicious. Drank at 55 degrees. Also noticed freshness to the wine - drinking well now.

  November 16, 2011 - Aroma of flowers and honey. Vibrant palate of minerals, petrol and citrus. Firm, but somewhat watery, kumquat laced finish. Quite good, though I would like a little more complexity for my $27.

  July 22, 2011 - A touch of austerity, this riesling may be over weighted with acidity. Drink this with food. Nice bottle.

  June 12, 2011 - Light green in color. Nose is lime with a hint of meringue and apple. A bit of alcohol that dissipates quickly. Bright, sharp wine with citrus mix and a hint of minerals. Simple but really good. Paired with dirty eggs perfectly. Not even close to being tired either.
