With Jill Dolan, Stacy Wolf, Jen and I: Great wine. Lovely fruit flavors, with some grapefruit and gooseberry, but also some mineral and spice. Good on its own, it was even better with the cilantro and ginger dip that Jill made, that enhanced the spice and mineral notes of the wine. Becoming one of our favorites.
