Excellent and not likely to improve more. Very lean but great bacon fat and light wood influence with clear cut acidity and a very slight citrus tartness. Went great with root vegetable soup in chicken broth.

Disappointing. Good nose with minerals and lemon peel. The fruit seems gone or at at a minimum so far in the background its presence won't be felt. Tart and acidic is the best that can be said, if you like these as the dominant aspect of a wine. Thankfully this was marginally better than a Torrontes opened earlier.

Agree with most notes on this. Good citrus characteristics. Well balanaced with subtle oak and good acidity. Still mainly primary and secondary characteristics, so no rush at all. Good finish. Good quality level. A little subdued on the nose perhaps and not overly complex.

Lean with minerality, acidity and slight wood influence with a tart, but not unpleasant finish.
