Gone with the wine Likes this wine: 92 points
April 23, 2023 - Deep gold. Pronounced nose of ripe red apple, gooseberry, grape, peach, butter, honey, buscuit and almond. Dry, medium high acidity, medium alcohol, medium full body. Flavour translated through to the palate. Medium finish. Still alive and kicking!

Boone's Farm Likes this wine: 90 points
February 16, 2021 - Not a great wine but very nice. Deep golden color. Got much better with a 1/2 of air. A little bitter at first. Opened nicely. Lanolin, wax, lemon zest, and wet mountain stone after a lite shower with a slight nuttiness. Acidity good. Nice wine. Much better with air.
