Sep 9th, 2023Wow. Love these. Wow is that mineral. Stunning mineral depth. Just dizzying. Amazing. Tree bark. Citrus rind. Almost a crystalline purity. Again, so airy like a scene in nature. Super complex nose. Maybe a 9.8. Wow, that is insane. That’s a 9.8 palate. It’s ripe but so crystalline and pure. Focused and nimble. Insane concentration and purity. Dancing pitter patter of acid. So so delicate. Finish is just insane and insane. Early season apricot. Mirabelle plum. Wow. Cleansing acids. Not painful and gently caressing. Insane concentration and power but at the same time it’s super nimble and round. Genius.
