Great introduction to Greek wines. — 7 years ago
Crisp dry white which makes me think that it is what quartz might taste like. Really pleasant with a hint of fruit and no alcohol on the palate — 7 years ago

Salina is an amazing little island part of the Aeolian islands, a volcanic archipelago in the Tyrrhenian sea north of Sicily... well, my dear friends #carlo and #andrea #hauner they transmit into their bottles all the aromas the essence the breeze the light the flowers the trees the cappers surrounding this paradise lost on earth. Regarding the unforgettable Passito Riserva paired with handmade house-fresh sicilian cannoli that's like to be in Arcadia Shangri-la Utopia... at one time! http://www.hauner.it/ — 10 years ago

93/100pts, 4.4⭐. Arcadia, home of legends & the oldest Gewurztraminer of Greece, here in 2017 vintage.
Yellow with silver hues.
Impressions of seductive tropical florals in misty nursery on enchanting nose.
Med+ body with elegant acidity in playful mood with solid minerality.
Lychee, marjoram, unripe apple & half baked bread notes in layered palate.
Awesome aftertaste, slightly off dry spring herbals. Long finish.
🗨 2017 vintage proves the most elegant Gewurzt ever produced in Greece.
A liquid filigree. — 6 years ago

Pricey bottle and fucking fabulous. Not worth the money unless you’re flush with cash or have a good reason to celebrate. I’m obviously in the latter camp as I’ll never be ‘flush with cash’ (1-Muz, delectable review, 2019) but I certainly had reason to celebrate! Sure, my leg is fucked and I’m on pain meds but I refrained from taking meds all night so I could enjoy the company of birthday boy, bassist and sound tech extrodinaire (French cuz he French) snaps Ducharme and later, best-dude, drummer, business partner and brother Philip nauseous at local champion pub, Arcadia and then truly begin the personal celebration... the wine is flavourful and hearty but smooth, much like myself after a bottle of wine, and I enjoyed it with my girlfriend after first having a glass of wine from a $20 bottle (plus three air miles... I’m saving for a special trip). I cooked steaks and steamed green beans and cauliflower which turned out extremely well, however, she may have completely changed how I eat steak from now on, which I’m ambivalent about... I know I’m not perfect but I don’t want to change my essence, I’m still trying to decide whether an Italian style of eating steak infringes upon my authenticity. We finished the bottle after dinner obviously having drank most of it with the food, and talked about the food, wine and life. This is another italianism I seem to have picked up, talking about food... so you can see why I’m cautious! I haven’t gotten to the reason for celebrating yet but my girlfriend got a new job (sadly, in another city...)! Conversation was mostly positive and optimistic which is fabulous because I’m still fearful of the future and what being apart this next year will mean for us. She went to bed early because of the heavy food and drink and the business of her last week; she also taught the first class of one of her spring courses this evening so I may not recommend this wine to dudes that simply want the ‘score’ although taking everything into account, the wine was only part of the reason... I stayed up later playing guitar and painting and contemplating the future with a slightly cheaper but quality Malbec and took my meds finally. This made me slightly tragic and sad but not so much that I couldn’t still be optimistic and hopeful for the future. If life is complicated but worth celebrating, I highly recommend this wine. It’s probably the second or third best bottle I’ve ever had and was worth the cost considering the circumstances. — 6 years ago
Extreme crafting. Better than any other sweet I have tasted. — 9 years ago
Crisp and clean, but too light for my taste. — 9 years ago
Pronounced Ta-tee-ah-nee. 2nd highest production for this wine maker. Lots of honey on the nose, but little on the tongue. Velvety mouthfeel for a Rose. Almost tastes like a mead. — 11 years ago
