Starts with notes of peach, pineapple and jalapeño oil. Light in body, the flavors just slip away, leaving behind hints of peaches and green peppers. Imported by Negociants USA, Inc. 1 Note

Slightly sweaty on the nose, but this wine shows much better on the palate, delivering assertive flavors of melon, fig and green tomatoes. Overall, it’s a bit strident and tart, but clean and refreshing; a suitable wine with herbed seafood preparations. 1 Note

Unusually lush, even for this vintage, it starts with pronounced aromas of limes and lemons, fresh green apples, and juniper berries, and turns luscious in the mouth. Partial barrel fermentation and lees aging create a creamy, smoky mouthfeel, while the fruity flavors are volcanic. But it’s dry and elegant. Virtually flawness Sauvignon Blanc. 1 Note

Muskmelon and lime flavors start off tasting sweet, but are quickly reined in by brisk acidity, finishing chalky and tart. This is a fine Riesling, yet slightly disappointing in the context of previous vintages. 1 Note

A bit muted on the nose, but this wine scores points for its bold flavors of peach and citrus and oily texture. Flirts with sweetness, with 8g/L (0.8%) residual sugar. 1 Note

Shows a lot of tart vegetal flavors, including tomato and bell pepper. Why drink this when you coulda had a V-8? 1 Note
