January 26, 2023 - Unique an highly enjoyable with exotic white pepper spice, oily quince and starfruit notes with good upfront power, but a faded backend and finish. Drink up.

January 26, 2023 - Brought by Ken to tonight's tasting. Golden in color, banana and apricot on the nose add a light sweetness to it. Some waxy notes. I didn't get the petrol that others did. I guessed Roussanne because of that. Acidic backbone not quite balanced as far as the fruit, so it leaves you a bit empty on the end due to the weakened acidity at this point. A nice wine that confused me at the very beginning of the evening!
