Grapes sourced from 2 vineyards, high altitude sandy souls in Vera d’Alba & Renesio Incisa cru in Canale. Originally called "Nebbiolo bianco" due to the shape of the bunch and the size of the berries similar to Nebbiolo, also known as white Barolo. Pale lemon with aromas of stone and citrus fruits with honey notes. On the palate flavors of lemon, apple and herb character. Medium+ finish, lively acidity balance, ending with citrus and mineral character. Nice value! — 8 months ago

Only 838 Bottles, this is bottle 550!
Again a great wine from Ester Nin, lovely nose with exotic fruits, peach, pear, fresh lemon, honey, full bodied on the palate, creamy stucture, Fantastic layers of fruit flavors, almonds, fine mineral notes, wonderful acidity with a long fresh aftertaste! 95 DSP — 3 years ago

Restrained nose with white flower, ocean, and citrus, intense palate of lemon rind, saline, oyster, long finish. Tangy acidity, great to drink now but definitely well before this peak. — 4 years ago

I'm always so impressed with the saké scene in Malaysia. This is a bottle that I'd be hard-pressed to find listed in any Australian restaurant, and if any at all, none for a fair price I bet. Clearly great things are happening behind the scenes here, with Kuheiji's Eau Du Désir popping up on the shelves of my local grocery (I don't exactly live in the epicenter of Malaysia).

Straight out of the bottle, you get the impression that Kuheiji has just bottled a fresh unadulterated ferment. That tingly sensation of CO2 on the nose, before it gets hit by ester-heavy ferment aromas, with the light spritz on the palate, and zestiness in the finish - gosh, it really feels like a ferment. It's just so fresh and lively, as it should be with each vintage of the Eau Du Désir. Air brings more clarity to the flavors of juicy melons, apples, and interestingly, guava. There's a sweet almost malty-core here, which is balanced out by the crisp slightly-bitter finish. So easy to drink! — 3 years ago

Had to blow off a transient ester note when first opened but then this wine was hitting on all cylinders with ripeness, sweetness and dried fruit as would be expected from a great vintage Sauternes — 3 years ago
