A lot better than I thought. Actually tasted like a good cab with a great balance of sweet to dry. It stayed the same or got better with age after opening. It had a slight sweet front end while the backend enveloped white pepper and the best balance of dry. Want to try again! — 7 years ago

A slightly boozy nose of black cherries. More dry than sweet. And dry on the backend too that gave me a headache. The sweet it does have is subtle behind the dry. Not in a rush to buy 2011 again. — 7 years ago

An unbelievable taste for a screw-cap white wine vintage 2011. I don't prefer white wines but this was the best white wine I've ever tasted. Perfect blend of sweet to dry. Not too sweet, not too dry. — 7 years ago

A nice surprise with it being a great balance of sweet to dry, with it being more in the sweet. And the dry wasn't a full mouth dry, but rather a sweet-dry. I like it and would like to try again. — 7 years ago

A fun wine with a subtle blend of sweet and dry, maybe slightly more dry but oh so fun to drink. It stayed the same or even got a little better with age. And the label is a hoot to look at too. — 6 years ago

It presented with a sweet front end and didn't have any dry on the backend. A very nice table wine that entertained the front end of the sweet palette. — 7 years ago

Not boozy tasting. Actually a soft oak taste with subtle notes of cherry. Only slightly dry on the palate over the sweet. Would like to try again. — 7 years ago
