In the zone. Nose is confectionery city with all types of citrus and apricot. Wow the brown sugar confection is not to be messed with. A stunning nose. Some dried honey as well. Palate is super pure and crisp with wonderful freshness, elegance and delicate, cleansing acidity. Sappy and so so pure. Great, delicate concentration and such a nimble wine. Wonderful and so so long. After some air it’s crazy aromatic. Stunning. Superbly mineral now and just wafting. — 4 years ago

Just past my favourite zone, acid has taken a backseat, this is like a really ripe pineapple and mango salad. Soft like cordial. 👌 — 10 years ago

A very nice wine from an over-looked vintage in northern CA.

Just as good if not better than I remembered it! I love the high acidity. It is a mix of underripe and bruised apples plus herbs and spices. Perfect for summer! — 5 years ago

Pop and pour. Notes from 4 hrs open. Wow. On the nose: peach and apple with some wax and char sidenotes. On the palate: a suggestion of sweetness in the first hr is replaced by fantastic acidity, nettle, lemon and lime with time. Lovely density on the vibrant finish. — 4 years ago

Incredibly layered stuff, with teeth-staining minerality, balanced by rich fruit flavors, bordering on tropical with plenty of grilled lemon juiciness in reserve. Never-ending finish with a complex tannic grip providing lift and energy. Thru 2020, at least. — 11 years ago
