  July 20, 2014 - Very good verdejo. Expected flavors on the tongue and plenty of acidity for food. A long finish.

  January 8, 2013 - Light straw color. Refined, inviting nose of melon, kiwi. Refreshing, bright and acidic on the palate, well-balanced, restrained floral and fruit notes. Nice long lemony finish. Nothing stunning here, but very drinkable, solid value, and classy in its own way.

  October 29, 2012 - PnP: very pretty nose. I get a little bit of lychee, tropical fruits, the nose is sweet but not like sugar, maybe a hint of lime. The palate is very full, the acid is stronger than I remember, really refreshing. Weird tasting note alert: I get a Sweet Tart candy thing on the palate. Lemon/lime. Lingering finish. Like 30+ seconds long. No alcohol whatsoever (12.7%. The sweetness I remember isn't there (although it might return as the wine warms). The mouthfeel reminds me a bit of Chenin Blanc, but without the usual sweetness associated with CB. At room temperature, this wine isn't nearly as enjoyable. I suggest serving around 45 degrees F. Really enjoyable wine.
