Love the tart, zesty, salty, lemony goodness of this wine. Taut lemon drops and candied orange peel with minerals and some deeper aged textures as well. Delightful stuff with some charred broccolini and crab cakes.

Wow, this showed wonderfully. Medium yellow color. Nose of lemon peel, quince, candied orange peel, with ginger, talc, crushed shells, deep yet still so fresh. Almost austere acidity, but I love it. Salty, brisk, taut and nervy, with crunchy lemon and green apple. Crusty, sea salt, oyster shell and brine tones add complexity. Oceanic, impressive depth and vibrancy, this is fascinating stuff that has aged really well.

Similar notes as before. This wine is just lovely and went really well with some scallops and sauteed Chard.

Social distancing blind tasting: A buddy mentioned 2020 being the Summer of Aligote, and its working at that way with this stuff. Love it.
