  Oyster shells, lime zest, candle wax, honey, and spring flowers are pungent and precise.
  
  Green apple, Barlett pears, and a honey note greet the palette first, then sweet lime and brisk acidity provides the kicker at the end. The texture is so creamy and finish medium long.
  
  Great effort, drinking well at 10 years. Ready to go, but no rush as I detected no signs of oxidation or over the hill flavors.

  Not my thing, but for the varietal it was quite representative. Sweet lychee and apricot fruit, some interesting floral notes and a funkiness I couldn't put my finger on. From 375ml.

  Tasted non blind.
  
  Light yellow color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of diesel and yellow pears. Flavors of lemon, yellow pears and Granny Smith apples. Medium acidity, medium body. Drink now.

  Clear light gold color and starbright intensity. The aromas are lime, sweet grapefruit, pear, and minerals. The tastes are lime, grapefruit, and floral notes. The finish is citrus tart and very long. Delicious!

  See previous. This is an outstanding wine in the $20.00 price range. Very tough to beat.
