November 23, 2017 - light golden color. Drank 2 glasses over 90 minutes. This was particularly nice with our pear salads and also with the turkey. Very fresh and quite lively, a mix of citrus and peach ,lime, wet stones, and excellent mouthwatering acidity on the finish. Really tasty, I would reload on these.

February 5, 2017 - Light gold color. Drank 2 glasses over 90 minutes. I thought this was particularly good today. It actually paired up nicely with a creamy 4 yr cheddar that through the acid and brisk lime and citrus falvors. A good amount of sea shore minerality on this too. Good persistence too with spice on the end. 90+ to 91pts.

September 7, 2015 - Light gold color. PNP, drank 2+ glasses over the course of the afternoon and evening. Really refreshing with a fairly typical profile, citrus driven, grapefruit, hints of lychee, minerals. The palate is similar, citrus, grapefruit, lychee, good tart fruit, nice acid, quite fresh with lots of wet stone minerality, medium finish.

July 19, 2015 - Best Burger Event, Monthly Tasting Group (Jason and Tracy's, Mpls, MN): Light gold color. Drank 2 oz pour over 15 minutes. Very lovely, crisp acid, some grapefruit, lychee and mineral, the palate is consistent. Love the acidity that carries throughout.

March 28, 2015 - A very good all cylinders wine that hits all of the facets of experiencing wine. Overall, the wine has great clarity of flavors and is distinctively bright and refreshing. Close to water clear. Wonderfully fruity nose. The mouth has a textured feel. The acidity stimulates the flow of saliva, giving the wine a distinct juiciness with no alcohol burn. A long and delicious lemon-lime citrus taste, with no gooseberry or grassiness. Very drinkable now and easily holds for years. Goes well with a wide variety of foods.
