Medium to deep lemon core. Beautifully fragrant nose of pear, peach, melon, and alpine flowers. Dry, with surprisingly crisp acidity. Medium- to full-bodied, with solid fruit intensity: fresh grape, pear, peach, with deep notes of peach pit and many other flavor components reminiscent of Riesling on the finish. Very long length. Very impressive. Not at all over the hill, though the wine is showing some lovely secondary notes that suggest that this should be enjoyed sooner rather than later.

Surprisingly lively - electric acidity. Ruby red grapefruit juice all the way through. Only criticism would be that this is fairly one-note - but what a pure and cheerful note it is!

nose bursts with flowers and overripe white peaches; fruitier than riesling but not as tropical as gewurztraminer (also lacks minerality of good riesling); palate is bone-dry and precise, a nice contrast to the nose

Rich and lower acid vs Riesling. All about fruity aromatics. Good stuff.

Fun wine. Dry yet fruity and a violet note. Worked with salsa that had citrus.
