There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like lemon, grapefruit, mineral and flint. It tastes like acacia. Mouthfeel was quite similar to a Reisling; distinct tonic/carbon taste/sensation.

Very aromatic, punchy like gewurtz. Its muscat, sauvignon and gewurtz. Lively and very fresh, very fun. The muscat is frontigue because it is a bit more delicate.

Flowers and orange zest. Strongest sense of orange zest I have had in in a while. Lemon zest I mean. Sorry. Bill notes a limey-spritiziness. I would agree.

Bring on Spring parties ...: As a big fan of Botani, I'm always looking for wines that might be similar, and this one delivers - crisp acidity, delicious flavors of key lime and granny smith apple with marzipan accents - nice subtle sweetness to the lengthy finish.

Light yellow w/ a bit of a green tint. Pretty nose of white flowers, marzipan, bread, and minerals upon opening up a bit in glass. Medium body and acid, and somewhat delicate in the mouth, with a little lemon, green and yellow apple and mineral flavor, and the slightest touch of residual sugar, which all played out in a sort of pretty, feminine way. Shortish finish, but enjoyable overall. I was told this is a blend of muscat, gewurztraminer, and sauvignon blanc, which I thought was an interesting thing for a Spanish blend. Perfect with Thai food tonight. 88 for me, but an interesting 88. Drink now.

Surprised by the fullness experienced. I felt the stony grip and white flowers that you would get from a lighter White Burg, which I was not expected, though very compelling acid. Very pleased.

Great stuff and RJ is right, this goes great with Asian dishes. Crisp with good acidity and lovely freshness. Great food wine.

Pale color. Nice body, some feel of sweetness, but has citrus finish. Very good with red sauce over grilled eggplant.
