I liked this slightly more than the three earlier bottles. Rounder, a bit fleshier with just a shy hint of oiliness. Tonight, I felt like I was drinking a Rhone style wine and I did not feel that way about earlier tastings. This time around we found some stone fruit on the palate in addition to the citrus. The finish is still rather short. After this bottle, I might be tempted to try another in the futre.

Nose: Floral, light, delicate. Palate: Citris, especially grapefruit . Medium body, medium acidity. Finish: Medium, but the acidity seemed to fade. Paired with a creamy, seafood entrée and while it definitely stood up to it, it probably wasn’t the best of all possible matches. This would have worked much better with grilled fish or grilled seafood. Nice QPR but nothing special .

Medium plus intensity on the nose with peach, ripe pear, lemon, honeysuckle, mango, herbal notes, cream, cheese and wet stone.
Medium plus intensity and dry on the palate with some orange flavour coming through. Medium plus acidity, medium body, medium alcohol, medium plus finish.
Delicious wine. The first white Rhône style I've really enjoyed. Just happens to be from Paso Robles!

Very Good++
No notes, very good over a couple of nights, some sweet floral on the nose, very well balanced.

Fairly priced at retail, great QPR on a retail close-out at $15 USD.

Whiff of petroleum, orange, and ripe pear aromas. Yellow apple and slightly bitter almond flavors. Crisp, medium-bodied, and a long complex finish.
