A cross between Riesling and Madeleine Royal. Lemon color with aromas of ripe stone and tropical fruits and herb spice. On the palate flavors of peaches, apple, lemon and melon with wet stone mineral. Vivid acidity with great mouthfeel on medium+ finish ending with fruit and herbs. Good now. — 4 months ago
Perfect Italian Sauvignon. Not too acidic and plenty of stone fruit giving it a wonderfully rounded profile — 7 months ago

Brick rim and super pale transparent salmon color. Some pink and purple floral aromatics on the nose, a little funk but not overpowering or off putting whatsoever.
Great acidity, balanced alcohol, very smooth and light tannin that linger to deliver a peppery finish. Overall complex and delicate on the palate with amarena cherry flavor and some artificial pink candy like hubba bubba or cotton candy saltwater taffy. Really desirable minerality similar to the whites I’ve tried from this region. i don’t think you need to chill this before drinking. Would definitely recommend and I’d buy it again for $20 in that 90-92 range for me. Probably at the end of its window if I had to guess, ready to drink now. — a month ago
The nose shows a bit of herbaceous notes, along with raspberries, blackberries and green bell pepper notes. I could have easily mistaken it for a cab franc. There is a tiny savoury note too, lurking in the back. The palate is medium bodied, with a delicious blackberries-raspberries stew note all along, a velvety mouthfeel that is slightly disrupted by gently drying tannins in the rear. The finish is long, fruity, with a nice savoury note, an rides on a tannic layer until the very end. The palate and finish remind me very much of my beloved Fronton 100% négrette wines from Domaine Le Roc. Good stuff 👍🏻 — 5 months ago

Lime and gooseberries, slightly bitter finish. Not too exciting - was paired with a hamachi crudo but may have been better off with a NZ sauce blanc. — 4 months ago
