Green apple, unripe pear, white peach, swirled into a light lemon cream. Leesy but crisp. Perfectly balanced with optimal acidity. Delicious medium+ finish that compels me to take another sip....

First wine of the evening for our Super Bowl party. Wonderful wine to start with. Solid acidity, gorgeous nose and flavors that just linger in your mouth.

Discovered this wine at my local Costco for $17. Found the 2010 to be crisp and delicious; on its own and with food. An outstanding value. Haven't tried the 2011.

very pale. nose: acid, reminds me of first Woot Triacipedis, citrus, pear. Very smooth, lemon. Gets more tart/tangy after a few sips. Tasting more creamy by end of first glass.

Nose is pear and semi-ripe cheese. Palate is apple, lemon, and slightly creamy. I'm left wondering if there's a touch of residual sugar, barely at the level of perceptibility or if it's just a more tropical note like mango. Excellent wine, and I may go get a bunch more to store away for a while.

About as good as sub $20 chard can get. It passes the warm wine test. Alison thought it had way too much going on after a pop and pour. It mellowed out after two nights in the fridge. Would buy again.

Crisp, yet round, lemony and lemongrass. A fair bit of mineral zing. Medium finish with lots of green apple.

Another good bottle - not too different from the previous few.

No detailed notes, but this was quite nice. About 8 different tasters, so it disappeared quickly.

Clean, crisp, refreshing with good acidity. Good fruit and spices without the oak.

Very pleasant with gentle citrus and apricot after-taste. (Did not miss the oak!)
