  February 9, 2024 - From a 500ml bottle under crown cap. Quite a muted, faintly fruity nose here. There is an unusual component to the aromatics (which clearly must be due to the added resin), but I can’t say that I detect any recognisable turpentine notes, as others have. Palate is dry, with surprisingly low acidity, and an equally unexpected viscosity that coats the tongue. The finish is somewhat grassy. Interesting oddity. Seems well-made. Glad I tried it, but I can’t say I really enjoyed it.

  October 5, 2023 - Optischer Eindruck: Klares, blasses zitronengelb.
  
  Geruch: Sauber. Intensive Noten von Harz, Zitrone, grüner Apfel, Rosmarin. Jugendlich.
  
  Geschmack: Trocken, mittlere Säure, Alkohol 13%, schlanker Körper, mittlere Aromen wie in der Nase, kurzer Abgang
  
  Schlussfolgerung: Durchschnittliche Qualität. Der Wein ist flach und dünn. Er hat keinen Druck. Jetzt drinken, kein Potential

  March 12, 2023 - Trying to get used to the trend of lowering the pine aroma. Personally like stronger pine resin as it goes well with so many appetizers and oily dishes. But to also say the lighter are a league in their own right,
