April 7, 2019 - Bright, lemony, stony - good substance but still surprisingly young and without a lot of aromatic interest at the moment. These Niellon wines are really chiseled and are not necessarily the most charming wines in their youth.

January 25, 2017 - Agreed on being youthful. Blossoms with an hour of air. Lemon zest, bright acid, long finish. This is a gem

August 8, 2016 - Youthful. Lots of volume in the mouth but a citrus like acidity that finishes the wine. Ripe fruit. Needs some time to come together still to make the transition to maturity. This one is perfectly young and gorgeous!

November 24, 2013 - Had this wine with roasted chicken and vegetables. Nice and mellow with a slight tinge of lemon. So good we opened another.
