April 6, 2013 - Compared with a Salmon Run Rkat and profiteers the Salmon Run version. Both are excellent though. Crisp and light.

July 12, 2012 - I really like the Rkat but this vintage seemed a bit more reserved to me. A bit less fruit than better vintages of this wine. Lighter than other vintages.

November 12, 2011 - tasted at USQ, NYC: oily and slight fruit nose. Palate was flat, creamy, more fruit. Silimiar to a their (Dr. Franks) Gruner Veltliner. Seemed to require food as opposed to sipping

August 8, 2011 - APPEARANCE: Clean yellow color.
AROMA: Hint of kerosene and pear.
TASTE: Very smooth and creamy. Hard to detect any acidity. Heavily coats the palate. Buttery and floral.
