"Think of this as the wine equivalent of that novel you can’t put down, allowing yourself to read slowly. Each sip reveals just enough to keep you interested while holding something back. The tension between what’s showing now and what’s waiting to unfold makes this particularly compelling. Drink now–2035."

"A good, complex wine, the leesy character enhancing the citrus and stone fruit with subtle minerality and a whiff of flowers. Vibrant and silky, this is well balanced on the palate with medium body and refreshing acidity."
