(Bottled 2023, 70 g/l RS, 8.96 g/l TA.) Great clarity, ~18 SRM. This present with a buttery chemical aroma, with a little cellar mustiness. Nice body, but a little flabby or monotone. The second sip showed more acidity that carried for a longer finish. Nice tangerine acidity. This is nice, but not really a step up from the previous wines, which included some younger Verdelho wines. 92 points.
