Popped and poured. Vibrant aroma of lemon and vanilla. Smooth flavors of white fruit with a hint of butter up front, mouth puckering lemon finish. '
Firm acid, attractive flavors, great staying power, excellent QPR. Still young, just starting to come together, should wait a bit on remaining bottles.

Tasted on day 2. Much better than day 1. Some citrus on the nose. Tangy acidity. Some round fleshy fruit. Peach? Nice balance. Not thin like many pinot blancs. This has some oomph to it. A nice effort.

This reminded me of a Sauvignon Blanc, but without the bitter/sour melon stuff on the finish, which is nice for my palate. It would be interesting to compare Vincent's regular bottling with this tardive (which sees more time in barrel, if I recall correctly).

Popped and poured. Zingy lime acidity. Some peach. Hint of mineral and nuttiness.
