Lovely terrier driven mineral nose with hints a hazelnut laced with lemon peel and Fuji apple fruit. Palate is missing a touch of intensity but mineral and citrus flavors. Thoroughly enjoyable but seeking a bit more complexity. — 7 years ago

Initially a big, rich nose with creamy oak, Fuji apple and lemon curd. With air it gets more focused with a floral top note. Palate is broad rich with ripe fruit driven by the vintage. Peach, apple and lemon rind flavors. Has a good touch of elegance on the finish. Should develop over the short term. — 8 years ago

Smooth and soft on the introduction followed by Fuji apple and Asian pears with a moderately acidic finish. I also get a quick zest of lemon or lime with some slate and mineral characteristics. — 9 years ago

Pale straw gold with silver highlights. Somewhat shy nose of underripe Fuji apple and Asian pear. Firm acidity leads the smoky/flinty light-bodied palate of underripe pome fruit and citrus rind. Remarkably long (8-9 secs) palate cleansing finish. Merciful saints! This is the entry level wine from the Dagueneau portfolio and it makes you want to go higher! Food is, of course, its friend, but if you’re into “sipping culture” this will work for you as well. Seafood (cooked or sushi) is a particularly fine pair, naturally. Drink now through 2027. — 4 years ago

1990. Honeyed almonds, Fuji Apple, quince. Still quite balanced and bright. Truly amazing example of how California fruit can be made in old-world, age-worthy style. (Vinted by S. Bedford) — 9 years ago
