  Clear bright medium yellow. Youthful fruit aromas of fresh green apple, citrus, and pineapple. Sweet white floral, walnut and lanolin also. Tastes: Zesty high acid puckery tart citrus and stone with a touch of lanolin. Dry and medium bodied finishing with tart minerality.

  Golden color, clear. Heavy nose of lemon, green olive, honey, floral notes. Light tannins and bright acidity. Citrus, honey on the palate. Medium finish. Not a very complex wine on the palate, but overall a nice wine for the price.

  Straw yellow, clear. Fresh herbs, rosemary, green olive, grapefruit on the nose. Light tannin, with bright, focused acidity. Savory on the palate, with lots of citrus, golden raisins, apricot, gingersnap. Medium finish. This is a refreshing wine, lovely on its own and with food.

  Nice nose of buttered almonds, stone fruits and citrus. Lots of minerality here. This is still tightly wound and very high toned on the palate. It needs time to flesh out and match that tart acidity. Otherwise, it just needs food. There's definitely better stuff out there for the price.
