My last bottle… sad to say it’s gone but what an awesome drinking experience and all 3 bottles have Ben consistent. Drank this one over 4 days and it was as fresh on day 1 as on day 4. Dark golden color with a deep honeyed jasmine nose that hints at the layers and body of the wine. Tart apple with a honeyed touch that reminds me of a similar taste that I’ve had with a deposed substance but this has a persistence on the palate without the bubbles. It has a full body on the palate that finishes every time with an almost matchstick acidity. Can’t get enough of this and it was a sad moment when I had my last sip. If anyone has any they no longer want to drink please let me know!

Deep gold color with aromas of rich preserved lemon and beeswax with hints of buttered popcorn Palate with bright lemon and broad luscious mouthfeel framed by perfectly balanced acidity. Maintained complexity over several hours. Still seems to have plenty of life left. Wish I had more
