Loads of coconut on the nose on opening so maybe new oak. Sweet and big with loads of baby fat. This came across as just too over the top for me. It did settle down with air but I'm not sure it has the acidity it needs for the long haul. We'll see.

This is just a dynamite White Burg. Dense, concentrated, brimming with extract. Yet plenty bright and vibrant. Pulsating with energy. Young but zero shame in opening one now. Wish I had loaded up.

Transparent yellow color. Bit restrained on the nose initially, with matchstick most prominent and perhaps some apples beneath that. Medium body, medium-to-medium-plus acid. Rich and creamy on the palate, with vanilla, white cherry, honeysuckle, and baked apples. The acid keeps everything in balance. Excellent.

Amazing night one. So good and so much going on. Fruit with acidity to match
On night 3 seemed a little riper in a way I’m not sure I understand. Better night one when it had that zip
