Interesting nose on this wine with some nice petrol upon opening and some tropical notes of tangerine and nectarine. On the palate almost an off-dry feel that would pair nicely with a spicy dish, but overall some tangerine and more citrus here with ripe meyer lemon and a nice long finish. Drinking nicely now and might have another year or two, but don't think you'd see any marked improvement over time.

Much more enjoyable, if poured/served right from the freezer. Frigid temp seems to tame the RS and elevate the (low) acidity. I look forward to future vintages but only if they return to the former, acid-driven style.

Definitely a much different wine than the 2015 vintage of my first discovery. As noted by others, this one has some overt RS; making it more similar to a off-dry Guwertz or Riesling. A touch less RS and a touch more acidity, and this would be similarly compelling to that 2015 (see my notes on that one). All that considered, it went well with the salted Swedish pork dish served. Another point, for that alone.

I agree with others' notes--petrol and white stone fruits, comes across as having a bit of RS.
Nice pairing with chimichangas.

Pale straw color, with notes of tropical fruits and pears. Medium bodied and dry. Would buy again.
