Herbaceous and mineral. A light dash of white pepper. Very juicy too.

This wine was absolutely delicious. The server described it as dry, however, although it wasn't sweet, it also didn't have the typical dryness to the palate I would expect from a "dry" wine. Very little acidity, easy to drink, but not because it's not complex. I was extremely pleased with this wine. Paired well with sashimi and sushi, didn't overpower the delicate taste of the fish.

Loved this wine! Drank it on Christmas Day! I tasted almost a Smokey cheese flavor. Unusual and unexpected but very delicious!

Beautiful wine. Very light, drinkable. Great notes of green fruits. Dry without that dryness taste.

Medium-bodied and on the drier side. A pleasant pre-dinner drink

Semi dry, with precipitated sugars in the bottle. Citrus, with a little tree fruit. Would drink again.
