A very serious, substantive Melon unlike any I've ever had--but wish I'd had all along. Citrus nose with a hint of seaspray and something floral. All repeat on the palate where concentrated quince-like fruit is softened and lengthened by pear and a dash of ginger ale. Unexpected palate weight and intellectual engagement for an American white. Stunning. (Brought to dinner by Andy McVay, winemaker at Dobbes.)

Very attractive, interesting wine. Good balance and fruit, with faint honts of spice and sea salt. Drinking perfectly now. More substance than you might expect.

Very soft and subtle. Funky nose at start, opened up into floral goodness.
