The nose had a good dose of apricot and peach, a little grapefruit, and a lovely floral finish. The palate was crisp and had loads of minerality, some citrus and peach, and a grapefruit and floral finish.

No formal notes. Opened and served immediately. Light yellow to yellow color in the glass, clear hue throughout. Nose of apricots, peaches and flowers. Flavors of apricots, minerals and a bit of earthiness on the short to medium finish. Medium acidity, light to medium body. Drink now.

Clear and pale yellow, turning golden at the rim. Nose of pear, peach, grapefruit, lemon and minerals with a floral backdrop. The tight palate tastes of grapefruit, lime, and peach, with a tart finish of decent length. Not a compelling value at the price I paid ($18), but appears to be available at substantially lower prices.

Tasted June 28, 2006 at an offline. Made from a blend of 60% Muscat de Alexandria, 30% Sauvignon Blanc, and 10% Muscat de Fontignac. Opened and served immediately in a Spiegelau Authentis Weiss Wein glass. Light yellow color in the glass, clear hue throughout. Nose of diesel, orange peel and lemon grass. Flavors of orange, lime, cherry and grapefruit (how’s that for a mix). Bond dry, medium bodied with light to medium acidity. Drink now. Based on the wine searcher price of $10.99 I’d say the value here is recommended.

Crisp and off-dry. The 30% Sauvignon Blanc in the blend shows more strongly than the 70% Muscat (60% Alexandria/10% Frontignan). Pleasant, but not thrilling.

A truly different and pleasant wine. A crown pleaser but also has enough going on to stand alone for an interesting sipping session. would buy again.

BBQ Wines - Featuring Zinfandel (Farpointe Cellar): The nose had nice aromas of roses, flowers, and minerals. The palate had lots of lemon, some stone, and a finish of flowers and spice.

An unusal blend of 2 muscats and sauvignon blanc; not as sweet as one might expect. To us, a great summer white wine.

Nice--peaches, tropical fruit, good zippy acidity and enough body to make it interesting. Yum!
