  4/1/2022 - Beerzebub Likes this wine:

  Opened at (cool) room temperature and that seems to work well. Aromatic and interesting - roughly along the lines of apricot, dandelions and gravel. Similar flavors, good tasty fruit without being overly primary, medium-bodied, lifted by good acidity, with lingering saline and stony minerality. Good stuff and a good value. Blend of Trebbiano, Malvasia and Verdicchio.

  One of the more enjoyable Coenobiums I've had. Hazy med sunflower dust color. Yellow apple and dried yellow flower. Light and fun with just a hint of tart funk.

  Color: medium gold
  Nose: leads with fermented honey, think mead, and a ton of minerals. A raisin/dry fig quality. Herbs and almost i would guess stems. But then we are back with crushed stone
  Palate: really peculiar, salted caramel candy, bits of raisin, minerals aplenty. Oily. Big texture and medium acidity for a full body feel. The alcohol is balanced. Meditation wine but dry
  Finish: medium
  
  Needs air, not great cold, needs room temp
