The wine is clear and bright with a pale lemon colour and presence of legs. The nose is clean and developing, showing medium intensity aromas of fresh pineapple, lemon peel, fresh apricots, yellow apple and white flowers. It's off-dry in the mouth with medium acidity, medium delicate alcohol, medium body and medium+ intensity flavours of fresh pineapple, lemon peel, fresh apricots and hints of white flowers. The finish is of medium+ length. It's a good quality fruit driven wine, fresh and balanced with a more than adequate length. However it lacks complexity, the nose is too simple, with just some hints of flowers to add a touch of diversity to the dominating fruit notes, there's no elegance there. Drink now, it could develop some complexity in the next 1-2 years, but should not be kept longer than that.

Didn't take detailed notes. PnP, sat outside on a nice warm night and chatted with the neighbors. Seems to be a good mix of crispness and tropical flavors.

Spring Bacchanal with Winemaker Ken Wright (Roti Roppongi, Tokyo, Japan): slight white pepper, grapefruit and orchard fruit. In the mouth a slight Muscat quality, touch of candy flossed fruit, a little short. Nah.

This wine has a nose of pineapple, peach stone, and honey. The finish is nutty and a bit unrefined.
