March 5, 2013 - Gorgeous nose, quite delicious wine, in fact. Here's the verve I was missing in the basic riesling, oddly enough, and the sweetness is just right.

May 5, 2012 - Saturday Walk Around Tasting at The Gourmet Shop Columbia, SC 5/5/2012 (The Gourmet Shop, Columbia, SC): As time goes on, I am becoming more a fan of these kitchen sink blends. I especially have become appreciative of the complex nose these combinations of varietals are capable of creating. This was my first taste of the day, right after lunch, which also helped my palate search out the positive nuances available. The color is surprisingly clear. There is a really nice floral nose these individual varietals could never accomplish alone. The mouth feel is rich and unctuous, and not totally dry. Lots of expressive, sweet tropical fruit like mango, papaya, tangerine, lemon, and grapefruit, with plenty of help from orchard type fruits. This wine is not all fruit, there some hints of brown spice, and a slight amount of earthy minerality. Adequate acid to keep thing interesting. Lots going on with the finish, some honeydew melon, apricot, lingering around with the tropical fruit. Not exactly my favorite style of white wine, but this is more attractive to my palate than I initially thought, and I caught myself letting this wine slowly worm it's way down before I took another sip.
