A touch creamy but the acidity and hint of tropical fruits makes it hardly noticeable.

Love this bottling. Beeswax, lemon curd, and warm earth with snappy acidity. American Puligny from an awesome vineyard. Come down to Mintwood Place to try a bottle or two...or three...or four...

Tart lemon/citrus dominates with some acidity and well rounded finish with mineral notes. Restrained oak is barely noticeable. Xmas gift from JH.

Smooth and with a pleasant zip to make it noticeable. Very nice and food friendly— or not! Enjoyed it with Tandoori Chicken and basmati rice.

Just an itsy bitsy cream but I agree with some that it was drown out by the fruit.
