Müller Thurgau! Pioneer producer makes high elevation work. Pale straw, a little green, highly aromatic w/peach, grapefruit &, lemon…. savory, nice salinity and refreshing finish. Herbal too. Wow. Anything but boring. — 18 days ago

100% viognier langhe white. Floral and tropical aromas lead to a waxy, apricot & peach flavor. Interesting & worth trying, especially as it’s not exactly what you’d expect to find in Piemonte. — 2 days ago
