Big, fruity nose of cherries, spice and some cherry jolly rancher. Palate is just a big hug of fruit and juiciness. Terrific energy and sweetness. Wonderful wine. Not complex but so pleasurable. — 2 months ago

Have not had in two years and wow has this opened. Stunning nose of lemon oil, calcified sugar, wet earth, some stone fruits and herbals. Such a great nose showing some early aged character. Palate is at once opulent and at once incisive. That combo of stone fruit opulence and acid is heavenly. An amalgam of lemmon flesh, stone fruits like peach and apricot and wonderful stoney minerality. Just wonderful. Now after 6 hours the nose is crazy and confectionary. Gorgeous lemon and lime smarties. Uncanny. 9.6 nose. Palate so pure and so balanced. Exquisite. — 2 years ago

German Savagnjn. Let’s go! Nose has that wooly Savagnin thing but with crystalline clarity. Unreal wafting minerals. Some nougat and hints of caramel. So much aroma. Palate is dense and rich but also ephemeral and pointed. Structured to a T and this has a delicate tannic structure. Awesome purity, freshness and incredible depth and drinkability. As this airs the acidity comes into focus and it has wonderful grip and focus. — 2 years ago

Just crazy. So aromatic, so complex and so fine. Stemmy but unreal fruit and freshness. After 11 hours this is so fine, so elegant and so refined. Nose smells like Xmas with cinnamon, clove, spice, cardamon, and elegant sour cherry. Palate is so deep, so juicy and has this wonderful stemmy sweetness. Great tannins, that are silky and sauve. Velvety texture and the finish has amazing length. Brilliant. — 9 months ago

Such a great wine. Perfumed nose, spice, hay, skoche of dried honey, some potting soil, cardamom, white pepper, all so pretty and harmonious. Palate is super harmonious and very pure. Sappy and salty finish. Palate is all mineral and spice and maybe a hint of spiced apple on the finish. Lovely wine. Very juicy and spicey! — 3 years ago
