A beautiful bottle been looking forward to it, lemon /gold color. Notes of lemon curd brown butter hints of almonds on the palate fresh with plenty of acidity

My bottle shared with friends. Explosive aromatic noes with good mix of the oak and lemon, grapefruit, matchstick, honey and peaches. Palate was a little overblown to me. Yup LOTS of lovely acids kept things focused and not as blowsy as the aromatics but it just seemed too much... Lemon, slate, white flowers great acids but too much oak for my preference.
Yes this was a head turner but I enjoyed these more 2 years ago where I felt the oak influences were less apparent.
Still a heck of a wine.

WTDS at Tilia (Tilia, Mpls): Light gold color. Drank a glass over 2 hours. The nose shows plenty of wood spices up front, stone, lemon, lemon blossom, and white grapefruit. The palate shines with toasted oak barrels, lemon, a touch of lemon oil, full bodied yet very crisp, dried apples, some earth, grapfruit, and later a richer tart Tatin note on the back end. Lovely. 93+ to 94pts.

Opened by Craig. Very crisp with solid acidity. Notes of green apples, lemons and a mineral core. 93 points.
