Light gold color with a greenish hue. Complex nose with apple juice, pear, vegetable tones, and minerality. Wine is big and lacks crispness. Some buttery tones and Riesling characteristics but overshadowed by the flavors found on the nose. Give this a 30 minute decant and serve colder than normal. Decent QPR because of its uniqueness.

Very bright and crisp on the nose. Medium plus body with some nice legs. Creamy and a bit of acidity for a well-balanced and enjoyable wine. High alcohol, and some sips were almost a bit brandy-ish, but really enjoyed.

Went great with the best cheese & charcuterie board in London! Was crisp, deep, and a perfect amount of tartness. Filled with minerals and citrus fruit, with just a hint of oak. Very well structured.
