"This is just what you want for a dry white in the summer--elegant and refreshing, clean and crisp, marked by invigoratingly grassy aromatics. It just a bit of a nod to a Sauvignon Blanc. For all that, it shows some reasonable integration of those characteristics and seems quite harmonious, projecting a “pull up a chair and sit awhile” demeanor. You can just see sipping on this all through a summer night."

"Bright gold. Pungent, musky aromas of peach pit, melon, ginger and quinine. Dry and slightly hard-edged, with bitter lemon, apple and ginger flavors displaying good vivacity. The dusty finish leaves a warm, spicy note behind."
