Drunk over four nights and at its best on nights 3 and 4 when it had fully uncoiled. Really lovely notes of green apple, citrus, white stone fruit, pineapple, honey, mint, white flowers, and slatey minerals. Quite special. Took a bit of time to open up, really coming together by night 2 when the balance was en pointe. Drink now if you can let this sit open and breathe for hours, or better still, a day.

I was shocked by the low ABV of 8.5%. This wine is a good option for drinking and not feeling the alcohol. Lots of lemon, lime, peach, honey, and honeysuckle. Very balanced, at least the average of the start and finish. Also very refreshing. Eye opening experience.

This was certainly good but not crazy good like shortly after release, and I suspect it's in a relative lull, and I'll try to be more disciplined in waiting for the next bottle.

maybe an odd bottle or it has hit a bit of a 'closed' phase but this was a bit flat and lacked balance - I will leave the next bottle for at least a couple of years

Pure and crystalline on the nose. Green apple and lemon zest. Delicate honey and white flowers. Very mineral. Discrete petrol note.
Lovely balance between the sweetness and vibrant acidity. Long, pure finish.
Drink now or hold.
