Delightful, refined but delicious fruit dominated by citrus and pear with a noticeable steeliness that gives it character. Very flowery. Moderate acidity, so needs a fairly light food pairing. Lingering finish of light, pleasant flavor. One of my favorites so far.

This Kermit Lynch import is nice QPR at $15. This doesn't show any of the grassy, melony side of Sauvignon Blanc and indeed it's mostly Semillon with 20% Sauvignon and 10% Muscadelle. The mellow, citrusy, peachy fruit mostly lingers in the background without acidic bite and the wine tastes like an extract of flowers, so much that it almost feels like drinking perfume!

Really nice if somewhat simple, good, clean, proper weight and balance. Good value.

Great QPR from this Kermit Lynch selection. It has butter, grapefruit and lemon over toasty almonds and minerals. Sad to see the last bottle go.

A delicious and refreshing drink of apples, cinnamon, and tart pears.

Citrus with an underlying minerality. Hints of grass. Medium mouthfeel. Bright, long clean finish
