Really interesting and excellent wine enjoyed over two nights, but probably best the first night. The Muscat, though a minority grape, shines through. Not a grape I usually love, the the floral orange blossom was subtle enough and in tune with the whole wine. Something like Chablis meets Southern Rhone meets Muscat. Orchard fruit and stones in the body. Very nice wine.

Similar to my last note. This just doesn't have quite enough acidity to support the density of the fruit. So it doesn't really come alive or help work with the food enough that you wouldn't care. A decent white and not much more.

The two notes below are apt for us, especially the analogy to White Rhône. Somewhat round and fruity, showing the muscat. But it did not stand up especially well to grilled salmon with a pungent lemon sauce. Still, enjoyable enough over three nights.

Light, crisp food-friendly wine. Apple, citrus, trace mineral
