Melons, some minerals, nice tartness, too much SO2. Apricot finish. Bit of Botrytis. Cooking wine for great morel mushroom risotto.

I dig it, this wine is in a good place right now. Eight years old and medium bodied, good acid, nice fine mineral vibe. Preserved lemon, orange juice, saffron/plastic, honey, red apple flesh. Nothing crazy here, but a solid wine for $22.

Delicious wine. The perfect wine for a #seafood platter. #organicwine #bio and apparently no #hangover Voted as a #stunner by all those who drank it.

Candied lemon, green apple. Really zippy. Some lees contact rounding things just a bit.

Minerality for miles. A long citrusy finish. Wish I had brought more of this home from France.

While I normally drink white wines - this is what happens when you give the bartender "Dealers Choice".
