Deep straw color. Aromas of stone fruit, lemon and tropical fruits. Sauv Blanc + Semillon mix- nice little sauv blanc!

Dang it. Cork taint strikes again. Such a shame that a lovely wine, painstakingly produced, can be poisoned by the inexpensive stopper inserted at the end. Can’t we just go to screw tops?

The 2018 is more lemon grass and oak and less honey than previous vintages.

Crisp and clean with lemon an pear predominate. The oak takes over in the back end with pleasant acid in the finish.

Lemon nose. Lemon edging toward ruby red grapefruit, elderflower, and hints of honey on the palate. A light acid finish that fades a little too quickly, but a very pleasant and drinkable light white.

Honey and lemon with a pleasant start through the middle. The finish is a little disappointing with less acid than I’d like. Light and drinkable.

Honeysuckle nose. Honey and lemon on the palate. Yummy until the end, which could use a little more acid and a little less sugar in the finish.

Lemon, grass, honey dew melon. Refreshing and light white with clean acid bite in the finish.

Nectar nose. Crips and clean with citrus and honey notes. Easy to drink.
