This is fantastic. So well balanced. Starts very tart with lychee going into stone fruit and melon, but then it comes back to citrus acidity with a good complex finish. I loved it. — a day ago

This is a bigger wine than I remember. More brawny. A lot of baking spice and also spices in general. Almost a cumin component. There’s a lot of fruit but it is richer and darker cherry and berry. I’m guessing this will integrate better over time. — 16 days ago

2012, was worried reading online reviews, but this is complex and amazing. Macerated cherries, baked apple crisp, some wood, other herbs and spices I cannot pinpoint. Some chamomile tea notes. All on the nose. Palate is apples initially, buttery bread, more cherries then hits a citrus acidity late that leads to baked apples with spice and vanilla and oat buy it is all balanced by the underlying acidity. There is clearly an oak influence but so well balanced with acidity. Nothing funky on this one despite its color and some online notes. Outstanding and unique. — 25 days ago

I liked this again. Good fruit but also some herbal qualities and a hint of oak, but very well balanced. This felt new world with a nod to loire. — a day ago

Tart cherry, some wild flowers, leather, almost like being in a dusty field with flowers on the nose. Palate is tart cherry and cranberry, some of the leather, a little forest. Overall lovely. Probably needs like 5 years of bottle age more. Great with food. — 21 days ago

@Delectable Wine this is rhyolite white. Assyrtiko, falanghina, ribolla gialla. Never had anything like this. Honey, ocean, melon, tart fruits, but coats your palate. Really interesting. I’m not sure if all works together. — 20 days ago

Second bottle is maybe better. Definitely better on day two. Just a very good Napa cab, balanced, big fruit, good tannin, has a long life still. Lovely. — a month ago
