Maybe it's the age, but it's a bit too mineral/salty in the finish. However, it's still a great wine, much better than expected: fruity but softened by just the right amount of acidity. Goes perfect with soft cheese. Just bought more (later vintage) immediately after drinking.

Floral notes, honey, even strawberries. Nice refreshing acidity makes this wine not too sweet. Medium body, nice finish. Enjoyable to drink chilled on a hot summer afternoon.

Floral nose, crisp acidity, and layers of flavors on the palate. Paired really nicely with crab cake salad. Great QPR for $10. Will definitely buy again.

Smoke and baked pear on the nose, with the addition of honey in the flavors. Crisp. A good quaffing wine.

Pleasant switch from SB and chard. No citrus but pear and honey... With the honey balanced by adequate acid.

Quick note. Same clean style as 2009 but lacks the rich fruit. Clean finish. Good value
