Not sure what I’m missing that the pros see. Expected more from it considering I’m a huge fan of their dry Riesling, so maybe the bottle was off. Tasted more like a supermarket off dry with just a hint of that FLX zippy goodness. — 2 months ago
Not a huge fan of buttery Chardonnay but trying not to hold that against it. Does have a nice green shade to it but too much movie theater on the nose. Light-minus (yes, very little) acidity. Medium finish. Bit if green apple. — 3 months ago
Lively and fresh. Great acidity (high) with light and silky tannins. Fun to drink. — 12 days ago
Moderate plus tannins. Loads of fruits and spices. Enough acidity to keep it light and bright. — 2 months ago
Really wanted to like it because I like the vineyard’s approach and I like their Riesling. But this just doesn’t do it. Fruit tastes stewed, tannins are a bit sharp, and the back half has noticeable alcohol. — 2 months ago
Structure is on point: high acidity, long finish, full mouthfeel. Flavors are a jumbled mess though. Bruised fruit is primary. Clean up some of that and this would be fire. — 3 months ago
Tannins and more tannins. Need some time to open. Good pairing with steak. Some deep rose and dark fruits. — 12 days ago
As someone else noted, bottle says dry orange rather than rose. Fun wine and easy to drink in summer, better with food. Not a big thinking wine. Reasonably priced around $20. — 2 months ago
Could be a 9.2 but I had it at a steakhouse and the Cali Cab - Filet combo makes all’s those wines taste better. Even without the 2+2=5 taste combo was still smooth, darkly fruited, and great. — 2 months ago

Hybrid grape fixes this an interesting note that one usually doesn’t get in dessert wine. Cross of expensive perfume / gasoline / grapefruit pith. Also has an interesting reddish tint. — 12 days ago
