7% Solution, SF 2015 (SF): James’ first vintage - knocked it out of the park! RS 4g/L (seems sweeter than that). Nose: Really nice, botrytis-driven. Vaguely lemony. Expressive. A bit of earthy tones - shaved cardboard? autolysis? not sure. But there’s some complexity to it. P: Reminds me of a mostly dry Austrian Riesling Smaragd. strong acid, lemony finish. 11.2% alcohol - very light. Strong botrytis finish. Very good. I really like this. A bit generous, kiss of RS. I really like this. Around 9
