In the zone.. Wet earth nose with vanilla extract. spice and citrus. Deep and sinewy. So aromatic. Palate is ripe and citric with huge grapefruit, tangelo and blood orange. Luscious and deep. So pure and balanced. Juicy and nimble. Fantastic. — 6 months ago

Stunning - first wine at the business dinner donated by me - no formal notes. Stinky on the nose - awesome in the glass. — 4 months ago
Palate closed out of the gates but has the guts I remember. Length. Really long. Acid and finesse. Even closed this a 9.4. Let’s see where it goes. Nose gets a fresh honey note and intense minerality and an airiness. Palate is just explosive with honeyed minerals and crazy high acidity and intensity but gets all finesse on the mid and finish. Wow. — 5 months ago
Killer nose of limestone, lime zest, some light butter and some light oak. So well done. Nose is so expressive. Palate is rich, ripe, textured and so clean with lovely sweet lime fruit and tremendous balance and purity. Nose has some nice sweaty elements as well. Unreal how clean this is. Stunningly pure. Not too complex but hits the right notes perfectly. — a year ago
Nose : pretty white flowers on open.
Palate: elegantly mineral. Prettily tart.
Lets see where this goes.
Day 2. Nose has hints of being mesmerizing. White flowers. Lemon flowers. Really pretty. A subtle intensity. Hints of Tahitian vanilla. Very fine. Integrated mineral dust. Such fine minerals.
Palate is lagging the nose. Elegantly mineral. A hard to describe sense of integration. Elegant “sweet” fruit. Perfect toned down stone fruits.
Don’t drink this until 2026 at the earliest. Likely 2028. It could be brilliant but it’s just not expressing itself now. The balance and the studios is there though.
