Served with seafood pasta, which was a good match. It played well with the slightly sweet shrimp, offering melon and white floral notes similar to the previous bottle. Maybe not quite as crisp or mineral as I'd prefer, but a good showing nonetheless.

Pleasant and enjoyable, not memorable -- feels like its from neither a place nor a grape -- which makes sense, since it's a blend; most appealing aspect is the mid-palate chewiness (from the riesling?). Ready.

My palette is more attuned to red wines, but this is a solid white blend. It's not bold and exciting, but I think it is like a pinkot gris on the fron with chardonnay on the middle and a tangy citrus finish.

Not profound, but gets a boost from being nicely balanced and versatile with food. Pretty floral aromatics with appealingly sour fruit notes of peach, pear, and honeydew melon. Could use a touch more zing at this point. Not unfairly priced, but a bit too expensive to become a go-to bottle of white for us.
