Like others here, I got this at a discount on close-out. (Interesting it seems to have been on close-out at a number of retailers around the country.) For $10, it's the best white wine (maybe red, too) I've had at that price. Not magical, but both delicious and serious enough.

Quite pretty on the nose, displaying attractive scents of ripe grapefruit, seashells and lemongrass. Very harmonious on the brightly acidic palate, offering tangy citrus notes, with subtle hints of pear and apple. Finishes long, with lingering notes of stone and lemon zest. A slight note of bitterness creeps in at the very end, but is only a minor detraction. Surprisingly "Old World" in style and clearly well-crafted. Could easily be mistaken for a very good Macon-Villages. Phenomenal value at the close-out price of less than $11. 50+5+12+15+7+89

Light gold in color, this wine shows aromas of lime zest, white peach, fig and ginger. The mouth feel is full-bodied with added flint elements, citrus zest and additional lime rind. The finish is medium with bright acidity pairing and mineral elements. 13.5% abv.
Purchased for $20US, this is a well made offering.

More stone fruits than citrus. Great value for the $10 we paid.

Some minerality and citrus fruits. Good acid backbone. Medium finish.
