Was expecting an orange color but this is subtle gold, translucent, and almost clear. Muted nose with subtle pineapple. Not much flavor on the palate. Might be in a super weird spot. — 6 days ago

Had to drink after my previous two bottles on the wine list were not in stock.

Served too cold. Too young. Not a ton of flavor. Just couldn’t wait for a different bottle as dinner was almost finished and the chance of going 0 for 3 seemed high.
