July 20, 2016 - Nice melon/cantaloupe flavors, some lime & a bit of funk underneath. Great with Thai food.

May 31, 2014 - Not much of a nose; great acidity on palate, some white peach fruit. Fairly decent overall, but lacks complexity, character, and intensity of aroma of good chenin blanc. 85

April 30, 2014 - Serviceable, with nice apple and apricot notes, but a little too round and dull, lacking the acid and the mineral complexity of Loire examples even at this pricepoint.
