Wow I love this wine. Citrus like tangelo, ripe pink grapefruit, lavender. bath salts. A major crabtree and eveleyn vibe. So round and complex. Just a stunning nose. 9.6 aromas. Wow the vivid aromatic accuracy of citrus and flowers has to be smelled to be believed. Palate is concentrated, complex and so deep. Round and energetic with great purity and such stunning clarity. This is about as unique a wine as I’ve ever tasted. The florals on the palate are something else. Perfect balance. Just exquisite. Tiny berry fruit intensity and also a hint of honey! Wow!

Such a freak show. Just an insane wine. I’ll be in an asylum after a glass. The nose is like the best bath/body works you’ve ever smelled in your life. Tangerine blossoms. Tropical but not blowsy. Everything is mineral here. Even the tropical fruit. Citrus jelly and mint julep! White tea. This stuff is crazy. Hi end bubble bath now. Like “Mediterranean” flavor. If such a thing exists. (I googled it. It does). Palate is like a white hermitage. As good if not better than the 14. Excruciatingly awesome minerality, and dry, dry dry. Licking plywood dry. But long. But trust me it’s great plywood and you want the finish to be thing long as there’s really good citrus. Long. Just a superb showing. This has more to yield. It’s tannic as well. It’s the craziest Fiano ever. The harmony, finesse and white hermitage/white burg 1er cru quality push this to a 9.5. This is elite. Might get a 9.6 just for how to original this wine is. I’ll see how it opens.

Wild stuff - gorgeous dark yellow w/golden highlights, big oxidative nose of dried apricots & white flowers, ripe citrus, some orange rind, really unusual & engaging. Silky luxurious textured on palate, plenty of acidic backbone here and more of that oxidative effect - Gravner-esque. Didn’t see this one coming - bravo!
