October 15, 2023 - Beautiful aroma of green apple, Asian pear, and cinnamon stick (“or some kind of bark” as the nice young woman across the table put it). Beautiful acidity, a bit more body than I would have expected, and an absolute stunner of a pairing with pasta al limone and caponata.

July 15, 2023 - Notes of butter, lemon grass, apricot. Pleasant and almost like a cross of napa Chardonnay and NZ Sauv Blanc. Glad I tried it but wouldn’t go out of my way to buy again. $17 at my store.

January 10, 2023 - Pale lemon in the glass touch of green, pronounced aromas and flavors, nose lead with floral and perfumed notes, palate is dry, citrus, Meyer lemon, stone fruits, nectarine, balance of ripe and tart, bright acidity, medium body and finish.

September 4, 2022 - Au restaurant à Alonissos. Joli parfum, un peu sucré, pour ce vin qui allait bien à l'apéritif. Rien de mémorable mais assez bien fait.
