  Further to Oct. 3, '21: Down to a handful left from the case; this is #8. Passed over but found recently. Developing somewhat richer gold color; fragrant white stone fruits, some subdued oak, good mouthfeel. Almost delicious, likely at prime or a bit past but still very good for everyday. Solid Notable+.

  Further to my Note of Oct 29, '20: This continues to please--rich (so less crisp than May '20), white stone fruits, hint of FR oak, paired well with grilled Tilapia. Overall consistent notes, including the color.

  Further to my Note of Aug 31 '20: This continues to please. Held back a glassful for 24h (screwcap), and it held up well. While the color still seems prematurely golden, this is delicious and notable+.

  Further to my Note of May 11 '20: Opened a bottle to pair with simple al fresco dinner of lightly breaded tilapia and potato salad. The color struck me as a bit prematurely golden, but the wine was delicious with rich white stone tree fruits and a hint of oak. Solidly notable+.

  Bought a 12b case for 14/b from North Berkeley about a month ago; this is #2. Light yellow gold; fragrant white stone fruit, bit of citrus that follow on the palate, crisp, very good mouthfeel, difficult to predict lifespan. Delicious. Stored vertically (screwcap) in a cool, dark basement since purchase. My evaluation: For me, scores on a "100-point scale" are misleading. I use a 4-category scale (perhaps with +/-)--not including flawed--which runs outstanding/notable/drinkable/poor. This is notable+ when considering quality, age, and price.
