    March 6, 2014 - Steely and acidic, with a green unripe fruit flavor I can best describe as Kiwi. the wine is wonderfully balanced in a low alcohol style (11%). great lunch or predinner wine.

    January 26, 2014 - A light golden color with a tinge of green, the nose is very aromatic offering nectarine, peach, apricot, and honey. The palate continues with the same flavors of nectarine and peach with the added melon, honeysuckle, and lemon zest. With medium acidity, this pleasantly perfumed wine is crisp and refreshing but sadly falls short of expectations on the finish. It works well with oysters and a variety of shell fish.

    September 21, 2013 - 11% alcohol!! Love it!! Very expressive, leesy, wet stones / pavement, flowers....great palate of delicious fruit, good acidity, great minerality, very showy for 11% Savoie! I didn't expect as much complexity...Amanda and I looked at each other and said if this was June we'd have bought another case. Drink it up.

    August 20, 2013 - I don't think this wine is ready for drinking, yet, without decanting. The vintage isn't even a year old, and upon opening it was spritzed with the taste of tart lemon and a slightly bitter finish. After several days vacuum sealed in the refrigerator, the spritz and bitterness bled off, the tartness mellowed and the wine came together and was great. It's very light and refreshing but needs to be paired carefully, I think with food you would spritz a lemon on. For example, it went great with crab rolls and grilled white fish. I also think it would go well with fish tacos.
