A stunning blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Ribolla Gialla, Tocai Friulano and Sémillon. Layered, nuanced, subtly complex - a wine lovers dream.
The nose is complex with layers of white grapefruit, lemon zest, stone fruit, white peach, wet stone. Crisp, fleshy fruit in the mouth, with layers in mid palate, and a subtle, lingering finish. A joy to drink, must buy and cellar the 2011. ASAP.

First tasting of this wine. Pale yellow. Interesting nose of wet stone, white peach and dandelion. Intriguing flavor combination of citrus, mineral and zesty acidity. Very fresh and crisp but not light weight. Medium weight and texture. Unusual and tasty, not a bad combination.

13.6% alcohol. An interesting and unique wine, with a chameleon of a nose featuring plenty of minerality, stone fruits, and a faint floral note. In the mouth, cool fruit and an almost austere quality that is pleasing and not a turn-off. There's a spiciness about the minerals on the palate and strong acidity. A fun wine, if perhaps missing a little bit of delineation and precision to make the next level. B+

Great citrus nose that did not follow on the palate. Light on its feet, almost a bit too light. Sourish finish. I found this blend to be just wine and uniteresting.

Quite pure and memorable with wild aromatics and lanolin mouthfeel. Made for cheese.
