Remembered it as holding up nicely to food but functional on its own. A little boozy and hot this time. Jammy flavors and a nice long soft finish.
WS 87 -Broad, brawny style has lots of ripe cherry and earth aromas and flavors, finishing with a savory note. Best from 2008 through 2014.

Nice bright burst of citrus and grapefruit. Good peach taste on the finish. A little mineral as well. Not too sweet and livened up the food which was a roof burger
wine.com A well structured wine with a harmonious blend of acidity and natural grape sugars. The palate has excellent fruit intensity, with warm alcohol and an elegant, lingering finish. Lively herbal flavors blend with refreshing citrus characters, balanced by the softer, warmer melon flavors of the Gisborne and Hawkes Bay fruit.

Pleasant Chardonnay
Fresh tropical fruits like pineapple, mango and green apple greet both the nose and palate upon first sip, followed up by a touch of lemon cream. Complimented by more creamy notes of butterscotch and caramel, the wine has a long, lingering finish hinting of toasty oak. Wine.com

Explosive burst of grapefruit, peach and mango. Went very well with food, might be too dry for rooftop sipping. Good mineral flavors and tannins. Lots of depth.
Concentrated and complex, with vivid passion fruit, grapefruit and tangy peach flavors. Vibrant minerality and tangy lime juice acidity keep thumping through the finish. 92 WS

Deep yellow color looked almost syrupy. Butterscotch smell and appearance. Went well with chicken and suprisingly did well on its own. Peach flavor and a kick in the middle. Smooth
Forward and open, with fresh anise, star fruit and melon notes followed by a hint of peach pit on the finish. Textbook flavor profile for a Southern Rhône white. 87 WS

Nice length and tannins but a little syrupy. Cherry, maybe a bit of spice. Boozy and hot later on. Enjoyed with pot roast on 6/11/07.
“Polished, round and beautifully open in texture, with perfumed raspberry, currant and cedar flavors that keep singing through the well-tuned finish. Has grace and style” WS 90

Tart and crisp with grapefruit flavors. Cut through creamy food. Might get a little overwhelming on its own for a while.
WS 89- Serves up ripeness, vibrancy and very good concentration, with flavors of grapefruit, gooseberry, mineral and grass. Tart lime peel notes linger.

Yummy, happy, and summery. A crowd pleaser. Roof top drinking with girls on 5/19.
A unique wine where the beautiful aromas of the grapes are enhanced by a crisp, nice acidity, a light fizziness and the sweetness of the natural residual sugar.

Very italian. Tannins but not too upfront. Spicey, herbs, leather, maybe some vanilla.
Enjoyed on a surprisingly chilly night with goulash and noodles
