I tried this 10 hours after it was opened and it's one of those white burgundies that gets better with some air time.
Great texture from the soft minerals - limestone and marl?
Just enough acid to keep it fresh.
So approachable. This is the wine I would serve at events or weddings.
A Kermit Lynch find. — a month ago
Perfectly ripe red fruit condition, Red plum and red cherry. Secondary black plum.
Texture is rounded and soft with a good acid balance.
Too much new oak for my preference, it distracts from the quality of the fruit. — 2 months ago
Very dry, high acid, high mineral content. Under ripe yellow pears and green apples.
Opens nicely after 15-20 minutes exposure.
Maybe not one for enjoying on it's own but a good one to pair with fatty fish or pork dishes. — a month ago
Still one of the best Pinots from the Santa Cruz Mountain AVA. — a month ago
A good standard Garnacha. Dried fruits and fruit florals, potpourri.
This is from the chalky slate areas but not licoricella.
It's kind of medium everything and a good example of what you might find on an exam or the wine you would use to introduce your friends to Garnacha from this region. — 2 months ago
Open this an hour before you serve it at 15-16 degrees.
Once it opens there's terrific ripe yellow pear, apple and florals. Great texture. A minerality that stands up to the near residual sweetness.
Perfect pairing for scallops or ceviche. — a month ago
Aromas of fondant and lemon and perfectly ripened yellow pear.
Silky texture, this must go through a complete malolactic conditioning.
One of the few good wines I prefer served refrigerator cold. — 2 months ago
This is so disappointing. It tastes like a $20 grocery store bottle of Napa Cab not a $100 bottle from a great year.
Over extracted, overcooked, stewed black and red fruit. No elegance, no finesse. It really tastes like amateur hour at the winery. 😢 — 3 months ago

This is really the best white bourg I've had from Kermit Lynch imports.
White florals yellow apple skins, green and yellow pears.
Great crunchy texture that compliments the tart fresh acidity, Full of minera. Wonderfully long finish. Definitely a worthwhile find. — 16 days ago
