Jul 28th, 2016Mostly very pleasant barrel aromatics on the nose, lean and precise Chablis-esque palette, but not that mineral driven. Would be interesting what this wine could have been if barrel fermented.

Dec 3rd, 2015Candied lemon peel and donut peach along with saline, marzipan, and fresh celery flavors. A judicious use of French oak frames the beauty of this limestone-soiled, windy site in the southern part of Napa Valley.
