Incredible precision and balance at 10+ years of age. Secondary notes coming into the forefront. Drink 2021-2026. Technical score: 91. Enjoyment score: 91.

waxy, with some weight. Not too much. In a field that would include brandborg of similar age with a 0.5% ABV lead. Grape and going towards mushroom. Acid is medium. Day 3 camping and slamming. Not as waxy, but still a modest (not honey crisp) apple. Still shows the body and the medium acid. But nicely balanced in a body kind a way.

Extremely well made and unlike any other CA Riesling I've ever had. Still youthful with some petrol notes coming through. Zesty fruit with a nice mineral edge and balanced acidity on the finish. Still has plenty of miles left on it. Will let my last bottle rest. PJP 2018.

Outstanding domestic Riesling, consistent with previous notes but the body is adding weight and really filling out. Have three remaining and will hold to drink over the next 5-10 years.
