Solid and definitely needed the aerator but aging well. Will be excellent in a few years. Deep and earthy. Lots of dark fruit. — 4 years ago

Wow. Orange wine! — 6 years ago
Peach lemonade in the glass. A touch cloudy and gray, but delicate looks. Slightly astringent and hot on the nose. Nectarine pit, cloudberry, and a touch of acetone on the tongue. Almost orange wine like spices and spark. Surprising and lovely. Abso-frickin-ideal for pairing with briny seafood as well as something richer like a Malaysian honey BBQ chicken with mango salsa. — 6 years ago

funky earthy orange wine from the intimidating 7'1ft biodynamic producer Josko Gravner, excellent with food, notes of hazelnuts, orange peel, fresh peach, forest floor — 8 years ago
More amber than orange and very caramelly — 9 years ago
Really enjoy this one. Lots going on. — 10 years ago
Dark yellow on color. Definitely mellowed more but oaky. Interesting to try a later vintage. This was ok but may have been a bit too aged. — 3 years ago
#sauternes so sweet and balanced. Third of three bottles for my wife’s 40th birthday. We saved the best for last, as it turns out. Honeyed layers as this gently warms in a Burgundy bowl - caramel, marzipan, toasted almonds, some petrol, apricot jam. Tastes exactly how it smells with the acidity taking a step back from the honey sweetness swirling around a luscious oily mouthfeel. Touch of orange pith bitterness on the finish - lovely wine. Indeed it pairs well with Indian food but the force of this wine could have easily matched even spicier dishes. Beautiful wine and what’s amazing is it seemed this wine could easily go another 20 years. Good Sauternes is ever youthful. — 4 years ago
The first Orange Glou box. This was excellent. The color GLOWS. Orangey-pink. Gorgeous. First Sunday. Perhaps during Tenenbaums... — 5 years ago
Bright, crystal clear orange wine. Good tannins. — 6 years ago
Pronounced aromas of orange blossom, marmalade, apricot on the nose. Expected the acidity to counterbalance the sweetness better. Felt a little too “heavy” for me. Not bad for $49 for 750ml bottle. — 7 years ago
Very nice / interesting orange wine. Has a definite tannic grip - but offset by good white fruit and acid. Surprisingly good pairing with a sausage ragu. — 8 years ago
Lemon zest, honeycomb, dried orange peel, and smoked tea leaves. Very compelling. — 10 years ago
Delicious dessert wine, very sweet & yummy! — 10 years ago
Home made Buche de Noelle with a sauternes to finish off the Christmas lunch with the French part of my family. Two classics next to each other. Well balanced, orange peel, little bitter, salty finish. All smiles. Thank you @Peter Zandbergen or the bottle! — 3 years ago
Refreshing, medium body. Very drinkable. — 4 years ago
This wine is wild. It’s like gruner veltliner on LSD. — 6 years ago
The 2016s just came in so I had to rip one open. This might be the best SC ever and that is saying a lot. It’s certainly the best one for early drinking as it was singing with only a splash decant. A return to dark fruits, cedar, orange peel. The life of the party. — 7 years ago
Super smooth and mellow, great mouthfeel and a nice finish. Juicy. — 9 years ago
I was drawn to the description including caramel and creme brûlée. Delicious! Not too sweet nor too dry. The price makes it even better. Apparently it's hard to come by so I'm buying up all I can tomorrow!!

This white dessert wine has a most beautiful, rich-looking copper color. The nose is just as enticing, with big aromas of orange candy and dried apricots. The palate is a sheer delight. It is sweet enough to be dessert on its own, but has enough acidity to pair with your favorite after-dinner sweets or a selection of cheeses. It is pricy, but it is an experience that can be savored. — a year ago
