I didn't really know what to expect of this wine.. I am a big fan of cab franc from the Loire, and not a big fan of NY wines I've tasted. This is not at all like a Loire cab franc, but good. Very light in color and body and taste. Juicy/fruity. Enjoyable.

Thought this bottle got consumed and unearthed it while looking for something else.

Nose of lemon zest and funky melon. A very thick and creamy mouthfeel with bright acidity and a powerful palate. The RS in the wine helps carry it from start to finish. Palate of melons, lemons, limestone, a bit of licorice, and some white flowers. Long finish that is very creamy with lots of white flower elements, lemon pith, and melons.

If this was bone dry, I don't think I would like it. It really needed that extra bit of sweetness to balance it out.

This was fantastic! No signs of oxidation at all. Fresh nose of white flowers, apple, lychee, honey, and a hint of petrol. very nice body and acidity and a long, sweetish finish. Great wine.

A dark yellow straw in the glass. On the nose notes of fresh pear, cut grass, and fresh breeze. On the palate, there is a hint of the age with delicate stone fruit, black tea and white rose petals.

Citrus pith, petrol, wet rock. Acid driven yet textured. As the lost boys say “BANGARANG!”

nose - lemon, salt, petrol. quite decent on the palate though simple. There is not a lot there, lemon lime beachy vibe though subtle. Medium dry, somewhat rounded. Really missing that acidic kick to round it out that might make up for lack of complexity.

Damn good stuff. GG in style and quality. Too long ago for detailed notes, but this was a fantastically complex wine that was good to the last drop.

Beautiful medium gold in color. Excellent nose full of Meyer lemon, peach, and some light floral accents.

Medium-bodied on the palate with ample acidity. More Meyer lemon, muskmelon, underripe peach, and sweet baking spices on the palate. Had a glass with Mongolian beef, which really amped up the sweet spice notes. Very good concentration and a fairly long finish.

The gewurztraminer from Weis has been my gold standard for the region, but this was even better. Got this in a Wine Berserkers mixed half-case for ~$14 USD, which is unbelievable value. Wish I had about a case more.

Excellent expression of FLX wines. Extremely youthful on the nose. Lime, petrol, wet rocks. Great texture on the palate that’s acid driven with a touch of rs. I would never guess this wine was 11 years old. Great QPR. Definitely worthy of a Bangarang from the Lost Boys.

Light and fragrant. Drank it right next to a German pinot noir, and these seemed like cousins, believe it or not. Cheers!

14.5% abv but no alcoholic heat perceptible. rich and semi dense, unmistakably riesling. medium minus acidity. wine has come together nicely and is quite enjoyable. I generally cant find dry rieslings I enjoy but this hit the mark

Absolutely firing on all cylinders. Nose is bursting with lemon, lime, white flowers, and a perfect amount of petrol. On the palate, this has great body, perfectly balanced acidity, crunchy apple and ripe pear. Finish clips a little short, but otherwise this wine is fantastic. Drink or hold.

Light and one dimensional. Palatable and pleasant enough, just not very special. A decent light drinking table wine.

This is drinking great. While not a complex wine, it hits everything I am looking for just right.

Tropical nose of honey, honeysuckles, pineapple, mango, and spices. Nice off-dry sweetness with enough acidity to carry it. Plush mouthfeel. Palate follow the nose with a bit of cantalope added. Finish turns dry and structured. Medium-long melons and mangos with a tart kick, a lot of spices, and bit of limestone.

Unscrewed and poured. Sandlewood aroma with a touch of lemon zest. Clean flavors of peach and lichee. Honeyed finish. Decent backbone, simple, attractive flavors, spatlese level sweetness.

Very good wine, decent value, basic, lacks some zip.

Lime oil, white peach, petrol, daffodils and lots of spice. Almost a white pepper thing. Bone dry. I agree with others that there’s a bit of something almost astringent up front but I actually quite liked that. J did not but hey more for me. All in balance. I think this is a fine reisling.

No formal notes.

Pinot gris made in the more traditional style. Fairly rounded and opulent for the region with flavors of muskmelon and candied lemon. Still kicking at seven years-old. Tasty stuff that drained quickly.

Good notes of golden apple, Meyer lemon, maybe a hint of petroleum? Round on the palate but left wanting a tiny bit more acidity to balance the intact fruit.
