  Just so good. Wish I had more. Shame the winery sold out.

  Fuller color than the regular bottling, this is super linear on the palate, with grapefruit/lemon-pith flavors, earthiness, and a kind of cidery quality, not quite like orange wine, but vaguely reminiscent.

  Not being a fan of Bonny Doon wines, this wine floored me. Reminds me of the famous Booker White from Paso. It's beautiful cloudy, almost olive oil colored. Nose isn't terribly complex, white wine, lemon oil and quinine aromas. Mouthfeel is really great, thick and mouthcoating. Finish is remarkble with lemon oil, lemon custard, some nuttiness and a touch of acidity that makes it mouthwatering and juicy.

  Consumed at at cellar temp: 60°-65° F. Friends don't let friends drink red wine at room temp!

  outstanding white for the red wine lover. Great balance, full body. Marilyn Monroe in a bottle.
