  Our last bottle, chosen to accompany panseared, lemon garlic flavored scallops: mild tropical and lemongrass on the nose; lemon and pear on the palate, exhibiting good acidity and balance; mineral and mild tannins on the finish. Its best attributes were still holding forth the next night with leftovers.

  Blind tasted. Citrus clear with lime, some stone fruit, high acidity led me to Riesling, I said Austria.

  This was delightful. Strong flinty smell on the nose and that fire-like odor persists on the palate as well. Nice acidity. Very good value at $16

  PnP. Pale golden yellow in the glass. Nose of bright, honeyed citrus. Palate of Meyer Lemon, Key Lime, honey, lemon zest, and grapefruit. Also a good spine of minerality. Nice core and length. Slightly out of balance on the bitter end. Seems to be aging out nicely.
