Powerful nose, anise, cantaloupe, citrus, grapefruit, red and pink. mango, papaya, just ripe, salty nose, lovely airiness and almost chablis like minerality. Juicy and clean, so sappy and dense but light and mineral. Gorgeous, papaya and mango on the palate. So pure and deep. Nose showing spice. Lovely purity. Length is brilliant. — 7 days ago
Nose: midseason cherries. Spice. Maybe cloves.
With air some savoriness, lilacs. More Burgundian.
Palate : sweet midseason cherries. Hint of licorice. Bracing acidity.
In an odd place now. Not showing it’s usual exuberance. Let’s see where it goes.

Really lovely. Great flavor. Tropical smoothie on the beach meets stone fruit and a tea party. Definite funk but blew off after 30 minutes of air. Sour peaches, earl grey tea with pineapple and passion fruit. More underripe stone fruit. Lingers on the palate bringing you back for more. — a month ago

This nose has an insane perfume. Spice, smoke, chalk, citrus, mango, tangerine, peach, confectionary and it’s got so much depth and purity. So focused and narrows it’s got lasers. Dense and chewy and unreal saltiness. Smokey as well and just so enveloping. What a finish. Almost tannic. Intensity. Acidity higher than schlossberg and probstey. Less ripe but more depth. So clean. Unreal. — 7 days ago
