January 30, 2010 - Decanted for a couple of hours before drinking. Really nice black fruit and after it opens up a bit, you can taste the Albarino in there - gives it some glycerin and crispness. I'm a fan...

August 26, 2008 - Good but not great. Had it with dinner and a bunch of other wines. The Albarino did not give as much lift as I would think Viogner would have, but who knows? Drank it with a guy who is NOT into Aussie wines and he dug it.
Open on day two (overnight in the fridge) - much better (and I'm more sober - it's not me it's the wine, I swear!). Full and fat black fruit. Can really taste the Albarino. Crazy. Not my style but would be a real crowd pleaser. Sweet dark fruit, EZ drinking. Enough to keep geeks interested.
