 Tasted by ABOVETHEINFLUENCE on 6/17/2017: tropical with pineapple, star fruit, honeyed kiwi, tarragon, the obscure 100% grenache blanc , green jolly ranchers and pear on the palate, enough verve (687 views)
 Tasted by ABOVETHEINFLUENCE on 7/1/2016: 6+ hrs, pale gold, the mouthfeel has hints to layers of the fruit intermixed with minerality, somewhat complex mouth feel, more classical then post-modern? That's a great thought and it's also on label (991 views)
 Tasted by Dental Jay on 6/15/2014 & rated 88 points: Light, somewhat fruity, but with am acidic backbone that makes it quite enjoyable. (2137 views)

USA

American wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.

California

2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson
