A lower ABV option at 10.5, it’s the perfectly light and refreshing! Persistent and smaller bubbles, with notes of green apple, stone fruit, and citrus. — 3 months ago
Caramel, nougat, dried apricot. Rich orange amber color. Tasted side by side with the 2018 and fascinating to see the development of flavor and color. Seems like time is the major ingredient for success here. Tasted with dried mango, caramelized pecans, and Roquefort. — 8 days ago
Smooth, lightly fruity, not tart, not funky. One of the best orange wines I've had so far — 2 months ago
A rollercoaster of orange. — 6 months ago
Awesome for a rose on a fall day. Especially a little chill to it. Nice long taste with the slightest of bitter finishes. — 8 months ago
Floral, fruit, salt and mineral to balance it all. — 23 days ago
New vintage, 46/44/10 blend of Viognier, Pinot Gris and Muscat. Honey golden yellow, very good clarity. Slight sulfite on nose. Dry, flavors interpolate between the Pinot Gris and Viognier. Didn’t pick up much of the Muscat. Moderate skin astringency on the finish (bear in mind this is an orange wine). Floral, linalool and passion fruit flavors. Give the tannins a little time to soften. Dry as the Gobi Desert, so pair it with something tasty. Cheese? Fries? Something… — 2 months ago
Floral and crisp. Excellent pairing with pad Thai! — 7 months ago
