  Delicate nose consisting of white peach, asian pear, and freshly pounded mochi. The mouth confirms the nose - the attack is mildly waxy, the middle reminds of ripe jonagold apple - crisp, powdery, and juicy. The finish is subtly lemony and floral, but the highlight is lingering hidden crystalline acidity, structured like dessert sprinkles (konpeito) - brittle, fine and melts into subtly sweet (although totally dry) salinity. The transition is seamless, and the wine consistently shows a pure and refreshing quality as if my entire tongue tissues immediately welcome it. Humbly rich and truly classy for just $20+.

  Vivid straw yellow.
  Smooth nose, with a nice flavour of mediterrean herbs, sage, and hints of tropical fruits.
  Nice acidity and minerality, well balanced with the smoothness of the fruit. Balsamic ending.
  Lacking some structure.

  Mid yellow. Aroma of nuts, spice, lemon. Great flavour of almond, greengage, melon, touch of ginger. Good balancing acidity. Very fine.

  I am afraid that I love this wine, so bear that in mind as I review it. This is my second bottle (not at the one sitting!). I wanted to try a second because I enjoyed the first so much that I felt I needed a control to see if my first take on point. This is not a special occasion wine and it is not priced as such.
  
  The colour is green gold and bright. The nose is a heady fruit salad and a touch of yoghurt, with very good length, intensity and freshness. There is almost a touch of honeysuckle and a pleasing touch of minerality. This is a lot of fun, yet it is also serious wine. If you are into QPR this will certainly please you. Delightful drinking.

  From the wine list at Osteria alla Staffa, Venice. This one was definitely more on the fruit end of the spectrum, creamy mouthfeel, I would have preferred a bit more acidity for balance.
