Bright is the dominant word I would use to describe this wine. It shimmers in the glass and on the palate. It speaks of just picked Meyer lemons with a hint of sea spray and of course that core of minerality. I had high hopes when I opened this bottle, and they were surpassed. Paired with a thrown together version of shrimp and grits, this wine brought smiles to our faces and lit up the room with its incredible prettiness.

Feb 16th, 2018Pretty hard to fault this: if you like shining, oily lemons and architectural minerality up front, buttery mid-palette richness, and bitterness bringing up the rear, then this is kind of a perfect wine. Takes just a few minutes to get slightly off chill and warm to its theme. No sulphur.
