Drinking beautifully right now. I think the listed drinking window of 2013-2016 is selling this wine short. I don't think this wine will evolve any further at this point but it also is not showing any signs of running out of steam yet.

Pop n pour. Gorgeous nose of citrus, slate, and Asian spices. Exotic and beautiful. Long dry mineral finish. Great choice with antipasto (mushrooms, beans, olives, Tuscan fennel salami).

The complexity of the flavor profile of this wine has really developed over the past 12-24 months. Wine always had really good acidity, structure and length but prior bottle was not nearly as developed at the palate. Really enjoyed.

Nice citrusy(word?) balance and very even, long finish.

thought this was pretty special...great acidity, structure and verve to make it light on its feet but full and rich on the palate not ased on the fruit but by the awesome complex flavor profile of citrus, minerality and more. really solid

Took 12 bottles on a trip with friends, and this was my least enjoyable one, but a noticeable margin. Nose similar to New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Lot of evolution in the first thirty minutes. Grassy. Can't tell whether this will improve with time. Will try again in a few months or a year.

Bright citrus nose with a slight mineral finish. Very approachable and lovely in every way.

Really, really great, soft and plush with amazing balance, salinity and greens with a little citrus. Perfect with fresh pasta with Gulf Shrimp and Scallops

Not much on the nose. Mineraly, white fruit (apple?), and some almondy flavors. Great with the grilled calamari appetizer. Would have been great with just a bit more fruit to it. But nice. Not a great QPR.

Clear, bright straw color with glints of green. Visually very fresh. On the nose, clean with moderate intensity, youthful aromatics of apple core, lemon and peach. Non-fruits of white flowers, raw almonds, cream. Flinty minerality with rounded (wood-matured) aromas. On the palate, dry with medium weight. Juicy apple, lemon and melon. Floral and raw almond but dominated by flinty minerals. Superb texture but overall an linear wine showing firm acidity and phenolic bitterness on the finish. Just delicious.

This was excellent SB but a price around $35-$40 rather than $55, would have been right.

Bressan is better. This wasn't a great QPR.
