Nice little surprise here, having never had the varietal. Light straw yellow color. Nose of lime, saline, white pepper, yellow apple, and grilled herbs. Interesting nose, and more coming through with air. Medium body, acid, and finish, and a lightly viscous mouth feel. Lemon, lime, yellow apple, saline, and mineral on the palate. Got better as it opened and warmed in the glass. Great QPR. Versatile food wine with lighter foods.

Pale, clear lemon in the glass with a honeysuckle & tropical fruit nose. Similar notes, but not too acidic; somewhat round and rich. Very nice summer quaff and a real QPR. Has at least another year or two in it.

Pale straw. Nose has heaps of peach as well as some light naval orange. Some gravel as well as hints of grass. Taste is crisp and tart, with peach and green or yellow apples and even a bit of pineapple. Nice, balanced acidity and minerality. Trite finish, but it suits something strikingly vibrant like this.

Consistent with previous note. Solid juice. Unsurprisingly perfect with cumin salmon with tzatziki sauce.

The aroma of peach, ripe banana, orange, cinnamon, dogrose blossom, tea-rose, melissa, chalk. The crisp taste of sweet yellow apple.
