Interesting wine. The nose is quince and citrus peel, tastewise there is almond, orange peel and beeswax. The only thing holding this back from greatness is a massive 16% alcohol. Brutal aftertaste that makes this more like an after dinner schnapps! After one glass i was staggering to the kitchen to make dinner. Bit of a shame but still a good wine. — a year ago
Smells like a fresh sea breeze, cactus/ aloo vera, tastes of almost a ghostly pear schnapps, and highly refreshing — 3 years ago
Just a solid smooth wine for the price — 5 years ago
White peach, fresh grapes, pear schnapps and one single lychee waft from the glass..
On the palate this is surprisingly tight and focussed, and very mineral, as well!
A smoky, sweaty, stony foundation give this wine quite a masculine and serious feel. Oh. And it’s dry. 👍🏻

My bottle is labeled "Gran Malvasia 2016". On the nose, this is apple orchard or maybe a peach orchard where the fruit isn't ripe yet... On the palate, for me, this is a russetted golden apple... One of those rare cider varieties deep in the orchard... Apple schnapps, dry peach, sage, mineral... Dry in the mouth... Medium acidity... The finish is long and becomes buttery as time passes... This really is outstanding seven years after the vintage. — 2 years ago
Mellow tropical fruits, peach schnapps, lemon zest, peony, white tea, orange blossom water, sea salt. Super fresh, citrusy and floral. Nice clean finish. — 4 years ago
Funky top notes with undertones of peach schnapps, naval orange juice, and spiced cooked apple.... — 6 years ago

2023 Whisky Advent Calendar, Day 23: I get a hint of those chocolates filled with a cherry and Kirsch schnapps. Very rich and warming, with mild honey and vanilla. — a year ago
