Served with a wonderful polenta, turkey, and glazed cranberries, the both bitter and acidic characteristics were softened. Not a wine by itself. I would wait 3-5 years before trying again. — 9 years ago
At SPQR in San Francisco for lunch. At first by itself it was a tight dry mineral white with faint character. Served with the Meyer lemon pasta with abalone, garlic chips, and parmigiano cheese, it blossomed. The tart acid character rounded off and the finish became apparent. This wine demands rich food with acidic contents. — 9 years ago

I would give this gal some time. It was fairly tannin based so it needs some time in the bottle. It went very well with a blood sausage pasta. The floral notes like violets will only get better over time. Almost cab franc like. — 9 years ago
