sb Light gold Light lemon rind aroma Crisp yellow apple flavors with piercing acidity Which rounded up just a bit over the course of an hour. Blind, I couldn’t get beyond young Italian varietal This is pretty nice, but I would tend to serve on the cooler side which may limit some of the prickly feel on the lips (2% Picpoul, but feels like more)

- Yellow gold color - Dry, medium body, medium acidity. Aroma of apple, floral, hint of lemon. Ripe apple on the palate. Very nice wine, first time I have had this Italian grape.

PNP. Light straw color with a hint of green. On the nose: Citrus, pear and some nice florals (honeysuckle). On the palate: Pear, citrus (soft lemon and orange) and lots of florals (honeysuckle & acacia). Very easy to drink. Not a long finish but satisfying. Begs for a hot summer day. I might be 1 point generous on the score, but I will buy more if they make more. I bought the max 3 bottles.

Wine on the River (Fox River, McHenry County): Nearly identical to my last bottle: Popped and poured. Opens with floral and stone elements with orchard fruit underneath. Nice and bright, with good underlying acidity. Crab apple and unripe peach qualities. This bottle also shows a subtle citrus element that is very enjoyable. 89-90 pts.

Lovely. Chilled in the fridge and drank with homemade pizza. Crisp apple, nice acid cut, clean and slight yellow tinge. This is cool summer in a glass.

This wine is delicious and upholds the Ridge quality and profile in every way. It's a beautiful bright yellow hue. On the nose, I get the balance of floral accents with wet stone. On the palette, while it's light and refreshing, it doesn't give away in flavor in away: citrus, honeysuckle with a bright finish. I would absolutely buy this wine again and enjoy as an aperitif or on any summer day.

Popped and poured before the shrimp course. Opens with floral and stone elements with orchard fruit underneath. Nice and bright, with good underlying acidity. Crab apple and unripe peach qualities.

Flavors of lemon, bitter orange & honey. Served with linguine with clams. This is a hard wine to pair because of the high acidity.

Drank with lobster tails & it didn’t stand up. Better as a summer aperitif. Would not buy this again.

Apple, orange peel & lemon flavors. Nice change from the usual white varietals, but I would only have it every now & then.

Absolutely loved this and pretty much anything Ridge puts out. Wish they let me buy more than 3 of these. Great QPR

Opened by Allred on the boat. Nice enough with some florals and stone fruits. A nice quaffer.
