September 24, 2021 - A scintillating CC of awesome dimension with steely minerality. Best CC I’d during this pandemic.

June 14, 2011 - Nose not particularly fine but very robust notes of citrus fruit with slight honey. Pretty full body with nice long mineral + vanilla and butter at the end, loads of potential ahead!

September 6, 2010 - Great complex nose. Rolled oats, great depth, racy mineral acidity. Fine, balanced and long. Outstanding.

August 7, 2010 - New wave 2008 white Burgundy tasting (Prince Wine Store - Bank Street): Standout wine of the tasting with green apple and waxy wood with white floral notes as well. The palette is rich, round and focused with concentrated apricots and dried pears and a big nutty/straw finish.
