88 Points

Saturday, February 4, 2017 - 01.04.17 - First bottle/tasting: Bracing with crisp acidity, lime peel, chamomile, and minerality; however, it's quite austere and fades quickly. It begs for food and paired nicely with garlic, parsley, lemon and olive oil rubbed Lake Superior Whitefish as well as Walleye in a caper and beurre blanc sauce. Needs time to integrate and balance the zippy acidity, but we're skeptical it will get there. 02.04.17 - Second bottle/tasting: Add white peach and tarragon to the lime, chamomile and minerality. Some of the sharp acidity has smoothed out a bit, which increases our original 86 score to an 88. Paired well with baked Snook in a lemon, garlic, white wine and Parmesan crust. Still fairly one dimensional, but good; however, it's a moderate qpr at $22 per.
