Very nice, especially for the price. Quite transparent in the glass - perhaps the 19 sees a bit less skin contact than previous vintages. Tasty and a nice pairing with Chinese delivery! — 4 years ago

Scholium Project

The Prince In His Caves Farina Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc

This is a big wine full of big contradictions. First of all, was not expecting a dark golden, almost orange hue. Had to look it up and was surprised by an SB with intense skin and malo aging. A pungent, sour nose. It’s not at all a turn off, the opposite really. At the front I get a brine, salt water character but that quickly turns into a giant sour apricot with a long lingering finish that transitions into unripe banana and spicy herbs. Medium to full body with loads of puckering acid. A unique and wildly different wine. — 7 years ago

Skins Chenin Blanc Blend 2020

Fun orange wine, 41/37/9/8/5 blend of Chenin Blanc, Pinot Gris, Albariño, Verdelho and Riesling. Looks like cherry skin-colored Rosé with excellent clarity, but these are all white varietals. Complex smear of flavors with a light tannin finish. Don’t think I’ve had anything like it, though that hint of Riesling is the bow on the package. Experimental and lovely. I admire its structure, almost dry, balanced but tannin-forward without excess, — 4 years ago
