    July 11, 2015 - A very basic somewhat spicy white. Nothing special.

    April 18, 2011 - PnP. Clear, slight green tint in light straw color. Nice nose. Slightly sweet with a nice flavor and balance, good acid, still sharp and crisp. Thinner bodied, easy to drink. A great value at $10. Nothing off.

    December 29, 2010 - Served as an aperitif with light appetizers. I've enjoyed this a bit more in previous vintages, but for an inexpensive white blend, this made several guests quite happy. I personally would have liked to see the Gewurz component upped to say 20-25% instead of just 15%, but that's just me. This Moscato de Alejandría dominant wine is fairly consistent year over year and generally has a place (think appetizers) at several parties throughout the year. A solid value, for its purpose, at ~ $11, drink now, 11,5% abv.

    December 12, 2010 - Uneventful and modest wine. I did not get the acidity of others, rather grapey muscadelle fruits with a touch more than a hint of residual sweetness. The gewurtz is there but mild. Minerally finish. Drink now.

    October 16, 2010 - Good. Agree w/prior poster -- definite lime flavor. Makes it too acidic in my opinion. Not as good as I remember it...
