2nd bottle and man does this deliver again! As all notes on CT indicate, this has the most delicious aroma and flavor of spiced, baked apples. Mildly viscous with low acidity shapes up for a white that might be veering towards flabiness; but the back half is loaded with dry mineral-sequel material that just slams this home. So unique. At 17 bucks, buy this without reservation if you see it.

Beautiful, deep gold color. Baked apples on the nose. Nice and acidic. More apples and some banana, lingering finish. Bit of minerality, nice and dry. Complex and rich. Very nice and very different. Would definitely buy/drink again.

Medium/ dark gold color Intense aromatic profile - tropical fruits/banana/pineapple with spice/nuts - light/moderate oxidative notes Full and rather round palate of orchard fruits and nuts Medium plus acidity with very long finish and extended bitterness in the mouth This wine really opened up when warmed up a bit - would recommend tasting at a warmer temp than usual for white wine but I think that holds for most extended skin contact wines IMO

3rd and final bottle, delicious and as good as the first two.

Outrageous, weighty, spicy. Baked golden apple, honeycomb, nutmeg/peppercorn finish.
