Nice light straw color with a slight tinge of green, this wine is not very viscous. The nose is Meyer lemon with a very slight tinge of grapefruit, backed by parsley and a little bit of allspice. The flavors are largely echoed on a balanced and rounded palate that displays a very nice mineral core. The acidity is solid, but it doesn't over-balance, even without a trace of residual sugar. The finish is just medium length, but smooth and tasty. I got this for $24 as part of the Garagiste Mystery Case, and this wine holds up its end of the deal. I'm really enjoying it.

This wine is starting to grow on me. Taste consistent with previous note. Really nicely balanced for this grape. Delightful.

Delightful. Not like anything from California, France or New Zealand, but great all the same. Minerals, fruit, balance. Very nice.
