rinkable but over the hill. Had one bottle at about 5 years old and so over the top it was undrinkable. So I thought I’d let it sit for awhile and I guess a bit too long. The color was showing its age and the nose did not show much. The taste had some fruit but again that age came through — 2 days ago

Very unusual but you could smell and taste are the verities that make up the wine. A nice opening wine on a evening at our beach house. — 13 days ago

This bottle had been lingering in my cellar for a couple of years. Not a big fan of Orange Wines but thought I’d give it a try. Well, pleasantly surprised with both Pinot Grigio and Chard notes throughout and enjoyed it with a clam dish. Whether I’d buy it again is another question.
