Wow, two wines in one. Nose is a dark, stemmy cab franc, Saumur style, lots of green pyrazines and a bit of soft berries in the background. Palate is totally different, smooth, crunchy, very soft on the tannins. One of the most clever uses of carbonic I’ve seen — 3 months ago

So beautiful. Packed herbal notes lie under a nutty front. On the palate the magic happens: it explodes with mineralityy in waves, electric acidity (yes, acidity, in grüner), lemon zest and oil, tingling for 30+ seconds — 5 months ago

9.1

The most concentrated delineated line of pure petrol I’ve ever had out of a wine. The remainder of fruit and still fresh acidity shows up on the pallet, but the nose is a show.Really cool to taste  — 5 days ago

Big big concentration in the roussanne-heavy blend, with enough minerality and great texture to hold the big wave of alcohol — 3 months ago

That’s a lot of wine in the glass. By far, the most concentrated in the lineup, brings in just ripe pear and load of bitter lemon pith. A bit of ginger on the attack. Finishes with tisane-like complexity — 5 months ago

The only one on a good horizontal lineup that I wouldn’t pick blind , but good. Leaning into Chablis territory with leesy creaminess and maybe some oak, but still has a pleasant rounded herbal nose (artichoke, succulents)  and comes together in a pleasantly balanced, rounded tone  — 5 months ago

One of the best example of ripe style California Chardonnay I have ever had. It hits with a savory character of grilled pineapple, then gives away to a variety of ripe stone fruit, a roux of spiced oak and even further back, a crushed rock minerality that keeps the ensemble lifted and enticing. The pallet is even more surprising as it confirms the stone fruit, adds a touch of citrus and slaps you with tingling stony acidity that keeps going and going. The juxtaposition of opulence and lean elegance is outstanding. After drinking through some flabby 2018s recently, this is a smacking reminder of why I fell in love with Jim’s wines to begin with. Wow!!!! — 4 months ago
