Drank 1/20/20. Nice with crab cakes.
Pours very dark in the glass, like an aged Sauternes. Nose of white peach and apple, with slight caramel notes. Peach and green apple on the palate, with hints of white pepper, backed by bright acidity and mild tannins. A very interesting white, that has not soured with age.

Solid wine. Dark golden hue, high acid, a bit more fruit than I anticipated. Grapefruit, lemon, wet gravel, grass. Off dry

Deep yellow. Grandpa's vitamins on the nose. Very focused mid pallet. Acid shows late on the finish. Soft mouthfeel and no real alcohol burn. I think I'll have another glass!

Acidic but a little heavier than Spanish Albariño with a honey color and oily texture. Pairing with oysters.
