Past it's prime and not near as lively as previous bottles. With some of the acidity gone the sugar seems more prominant than before. Flavors of citrus fruit and pears

Color: light yellow, not particularly dark Nose: It had a citrussy church punch smell...if that makes sense Taste: Pretty much a one note wine, i got a mixed fruit flavor with a focus on the citrus, there's a slight bit of a spicy flavor on the end but its very subtle

Lovely lychee and a hint of flowers on the nose. A little spritz, off-dry, flavors of grapefruit and lychee that are nice but not as enchanting as the nose. a winner.

Nose of wildflowers, pear, honey. A little petrol? Grapefruit, pear, and spice on the palate. Pretty well balanced for a $6 bottle, with good acidity and a little residual sugar. They may be simple wines, but IMO, Chateau Sainte Michelle offers some of the best QPR whites in the $5-10 range, and they're widely available.

Floral nose, with clove and lots of grapefruit on the backend. Nice acidity with a slightly oily mouthfeel. I liked this wine and thought it went well with talapia and grilled vegetables.

Bright appearance; very light yellow. Clear, medium-intensity nose of apple, citrus, honeysuckle, and faint, dry clove. Off/medium dry, medium acidity, light body; well balanced taste following the nose that could benefit by a more acid/mineral reprieve; with lingering tropical flower finish. Excellent QPR. Pick up some hot Thai or Indian food and serve this with it ice cold.

Floral nose. Slight, coarse sparkle on the attack, followed by ripe fruit notes. Moderate acidity. Sweeter than 12% abv would suggest, but not overly so; very drinkable.

Sweet floral nose, with peaches; slightly off dry, tangy, with peaches and limes, lemon zest, a touch of spice, and minerals; very nice finish, ending in apples and peaches. Not as exotic as I was expecting, but bright, clean and a very nice qpr.

The color was almost non-existent (I couldn't tell if three was water or wine in my glass). Did show some aromas of apples and peaches, but that about it. Lacking body and structure. - JD70

This was a really nice bright and dry wine with a hint of grapefruit I believe. We had this with steamed mussels and cod. At $6.99, it makes it an easy choice for nights when the family is eating shellfish.

A pale yellow in the glass, this northwestern gewurztraminer features a nose of spicy pear and pink grapefruit. The palate was juicy and nicely spicy, and just a touch off-dry. Considerably drier, for example, than Fetzer's version of this varietal. Good acidity and a nice finish. Really a very serviceable gewurztraminer and went well with a ham and cheese sandwich. Would a natural for spicy Asian cuisin, too.

Nice drinkable white wine but too sweet and not enough tartness.

The aroma leaves a bit to be desired, though it does have nice subtle hints of a variety of fruits.
The taste is full of peach, mango, pear, cherries, and rather sweet, though not so sweet as to detract from the experience.

Slight sparkle. Flavors of lychee, honey and spice, with a fine, subtle sweetness on the finish. Easy-drinking and a good fit with Thai pumpkin curry.

AA Wine Tasting Great Wine Made Simple (San Francisco, CA): Great nose with sweet spice and some floral notes. Palate was off-dry and enjoyable, although simple. Good QPR, but nothing special.
