January 23, 2021 - Light, fruity with a marvelous, refreshing bouquet. Good with food or for dipping on its own, this is consistent and a good buy.

December 1, 2019 - Definitely a head above the crowd, and a super QPR. Great "drink me" balance, and loaded with pleasant aromatics - peach, melon, grapefruit. Has nice acidity, but not the little bitter bite which would cause grapefruit to predominate. Very slightly carbonic. It went well with scallops, but with 12.5% ABV it would definitely shine with hors d'oeuvres or as a patio wine next summer. Should last through then, but probably not a long keeper.
