    February 3, 2024 - What's not to like? Fresh, but with enough complexity to make it interesting. Let it breathe a bit.

    December 25, 2023 - Light straw color, crisp and acidic with a bit of grapefruit and blackberry flavors. Nice enjoyed solo, but didn’t pair well with the Brie-cranberry chicken. Would be better served with a more savory poultry or fish.

    October 18, 2023 - Place straw color. Not too fragrant: cut grass, lemon peel, and citrus. Medium bodied with well balanced acidity and fruit. Short and clean finish. Paired well with grilled cheese and fish.

    July 24, 2023 - These hippies have had 360 jahren to realize this gently leesy assemblage would be a far superior aperitif if made with the méthode Anglaise, and that sylvaner is not a noble grape. If Northern Algeria can rip out hectares of Carignan, the Nazi countries can do the same with the red delicious of vinifera

    Update: it appears the Nazi countries are way ahead of me, and have been quite vicious about ripping out sylvaner in recent times. I apologise for my ignorance

    Pinot blanc sucks too

    June 5, 2023 - Light to medium body, pale straw colour. Fruits forward aroma of apples, loquat and lemongrass. Vibrant palate and dry finish. Slightly high alcohol but overall crisp, refreshing and balanced wine. Food friendly, Well pairing to Mediterranean salad and brie cheese. Serve 10ºC - 12ºC. Open a few minutes ahead. Drink now.
