Interesting white for under $15, Recommend Very interesting nose with aromatics switching between, sauvignon blanc, gewürztraminer and scheurebe. Hint of cat phee, fresh lemon peel, alcohol, raw almond, and funky (good) gewurtz notes. On the palate, wine is dense with good reduction, firm acidity, grapefruit, hints of dry lychee, good mid palate, finished a little hot. Purchased from retail store and consumed without food at 50-55. Drink now… Na zdrowie

Blind tasted, and of course none of us would be guessing Torrontes. Moderate viscosity, youthful nose of peach, lemon zest, white flowers, no visible oak. Palette shows moderate plus complexity of peach, apricot, orange zest, flowers, honeysuckle, medium acidity and alcohol. Incorrect guesses included Albarino and Viognier.

A bit spicy, smooth, peach, strawberry, some white pepper and lavender. Some lemon zest as well. Refreshing and a lovely wine. Well balanced with great acidity.

50+5+8+15+7. Tropical nose. Pineapple and mango initially with papaya and leeches come through near the end. Very light oak treatment. Quaffable. Stacole.
