Star bright green gold. Abundant nose of green apple and cement. Echoed in the medium palate adding orange rind, white pepper, and vanilla ice. Medium plus acidity supports an almost Bordeaux Blanc roundness making this an excellent main course white. Trout amandine or Bronzino come immediately to mind, but it can properly upscale more humble fare. Drink now through 2026. — a year ago

Bright red cherry, amandine, tart rhubarb, and raspberries. Plenty of acid and structure for this rich 2015. Monopole. — 7 years ago

Star bright pale straw. Abundant nose of vanilla and quince. Palate is lighter than the nose portends, but still confirms adding a mineral note. Acidity is high and only tamped down a little bit by the barrel, but still well integrated into the whole. Moderate length finish continues the palate. As food friendly as any of its peers, but a good match for lighter fare than most. Salads, smaller crustaceans, and light fried chicken will be great, but your trout amandine won't be shortchanged. Drink now. — 2 years ago

Hot cocoa, marshmallow, cinnamon, nutmeg. Superb! After trying many different beers from Clown Shoes, finally one that is not disappointing. — 8 years ago

I taste smoke and pepper and a light fruit I cannot identify. This would be awesome at an outdoor, chilly autumn clambake. Us? We ate it with hot tuna salad amandine. Cretins. — 9 years ago

A classic Sauvignon-Semillon blend. Bright straw gold. Abundant and inviting nose of orange rind and honey. Medium palate yields that same orange rind complemented by green apple, balsa wood, and stone. Firm, bracing acidity from entry to finish makes for a perfect Bordelaise dinner wine. Trout amandine is he natural pair, but any white flesh fish or baked fowl will pair well. Drink now through 2024 for best effect, but will drink well a bit longer. — 2 years ago

First Furmint or Tokaji as they call it on the other side of the border.. on the nose it is floral yellow flower and a yellow brown apple ... but in the mouth is where all the magic happen... medium acidity, dry, bright but very full bodied and round... you get crisp végétale notes, lots of honey nutty flavours on mid palate and ends on a spicy and star anise note... wow what an after taste!!! So refreshingly nice... went so well with the truite amandine ;) — 8 years ago
