Found this to be a bit monolithic and citrus-forward the first night, but it's a tricky one. By night two it had shifted considerably, with complexity emerging and some mineral/almond/beeswax notes that were subtle but lovely. Got some fleshy peach as well. Give this one some time to appreciate it.

Nice wine with nice aromatic complexity, a nice palate that showed some Viognier viscosity but the lower abv (13%) really allowed the fruit flavors to shine and the finish was long and crisp. Really enjoyed this wine. Would buy again.

Showing some weight yet light on its feet, with notes of green apple and peach leading the way. Floral hints weave in, and lively acidity adds freshness.

Nice light white. Good acidity with a light/medium body. Nice fruit and floral flavors. Paired with chicken shawarma, would probably do better on its own.

This is one of my favorite wines. It stood up wonderfully to spicy grilled barbecue chicken. Very long finish. Highly recommended.

Better when first opened. Great citrus aspect. Fell off over the evening though.
