For a dessert wine this is a pleasant surprise. Great nose...ginger ale, but more floral and honeysuckle like. Palate is straight honeydew, and the floral notes come back on the finish. For a high alcohol wine, it carries it well. — 8 years ago

Enjoyed at the winery, but this bottle was quite thin in body and flavor. Light cherry and rhubarb notes. Drinkable and tasty, but a weaker wine. — 6 years ago

Great all around wine. Fruity enough to drink on its own, but enough body to stand up to food. Stays for a week opened without losing its edge. — 8 years ago

A truly exceptional Chardonnay. Well-balanced with good mineral qualities, yet enough fruits and herby elements to make it interesting with every sip. Drank the whole bottle. Glad to see such a good Chardonnay offering from New York. — 8 years ago

Good, standard Nero D'Avola. Best when you open it and drink it over a few days to a week...flavors develop. Some good herby and spicy qualities. Peppery finish. — 8 years ago

Delicious with food or on it's own. Well balanced, fruity, spicy, grassy, but bright. Unique flavor profile somewhere between Chardonnay and Riesling. — 8 years ago
