750 ml bottle shared by travlr. HUGE thanks. Aroma and flavor are a copy. Red apple followed by Granny Smith and light minerals. Nice bone dry texture. Real good!

750mL bottled 2019, thanks Travlr, drunk 7/3/23. Super bright almost glowing brass. Clear. Nose is still bright after four years. Apple skin, white pepper, sherry-like oxidation. Dry, clean, peppery, dainty. Super dry, ultra attenuated. Clean, white pepper, soft apple flesh. Reminds of a dry sherry in texture and flavor even if it's not quite the same. This is really lovely. Very soft, ultra light Brett.

This was cheaper to acquire direct & shipped than at my local... Tulip @home. Corked not caged. 2019 batch. Clear, middling gold, intentionally still, but with the tiniest of particles in suspension. Pineapple-apple-orange juice box, grassy, un-ripe stone fruit, dewy sweet-smelling flowers. Light & airy. Bracing & sharp upfront, with a tang of complex green/sour fruit lengthwise. It bulges out with zest then gets thin & wine-y. There's an obvious classy red skin Mcintosh note in the middle there(it's reassuringly apple-y). Right near the end everything gets mellow & you sort of get into frosting/marzipan feels when it drags out dry. Clenching finish. Pretty impressive for just 6%. This is the kind of fun still bottles we use to get from Eve's(Albee Hill) before they wanted to be more pedestrian in that line. Very good to great.

Pours a clear golden straw from a bottle. Nice apple aroma. Tart and watery in the mouth though, kind of a let down. Okay cider.
