Blind tasting Pale gold, filtered Aromatics medium + with some reductive notes. Bruised yellow apple. Green stem and pepper. Minerality. No new oak Palate has a medium body. Acid medium +. Moderate phenolics. Alcohol medium +. Lemon and lime. Minerals Finish has a medium + length. Balanced. Improved with time in glass. Beautiful. Dry glass notes of pepper I guessed Verdicchio, 2019 Drinks well now, but could last years.

Dark straw/ light gold color Medium plus aromas - gorgeous medium ripe peach/pear and yellow apple notes with yellow florals with reductive flinty notes which blew off with extended time in the glass Medium palate with lemon/ lime and green apple notes Medium plus/ high acidity and moderate phenolic bitterness and medium alcohol Moderate length led by acidity and phenolics Really nice wine and quite complex Drink now or hold 3-5 yrs

razor sharp acidity throws this out of balance. and perhaps this bottle was slightly corked, but that level of acid easily can lead one to overstate the vegetal/underripe tree fruit notes. 1-dimensional for now, not terribly complex

Single blind tasting Straw with lemon reflections Aromatics medium +. Initially subtle oil/exhaust that quickly leg to minerality and spice. Subtle oak. Tertiary green herbs in the dry glass. Palate medium. Acid medium +, horizontal. Phenolics medium. Alcohol medium. Lemon and yellow apple. Secondary of bitter almond. Has a tight "tension" to the palate. Finish has medium length with balance towards the phenolics I would wait a few years. I suspect this wine will become beautiful over time, but not drink now.

Dark straw/ light gold color - daybright Medium plus aromas of Meyer lemon/ yellow apple with hint of dank MJ and high toned minerality and light oak spice - quite intriguing Medium plus palate of ripe lemon and pear with somewhat oily texture High acidity and medium plus phenolic bitterness here Medium plus finish and medium alcohol Theres alot going on here - I think this needs 3-5 yrs to shine
