This was my WOW wine of the week. Not a wine of great complexity but it blew my socks off for its elegance and balance even at 15.5% abv! I know it's hard to believe but this wine skillfully and successfully argues that high alcohol wines can be balanced. I pegged it at 13% with no heat or prickle. The wine was neutral on the nose and mineral driven with restrained pear, melon, and carnation on the nose. Tasted blind it lacked the weight of Chardonnay and aromas of Pinot Grigio and Chenin blanc but the lemon green color was spot in for all three. High acid had me leaning toward Chenin.

Pure gold! Pure honeycomb, sweet, balanced acidity, deliciously honeyed with a gorgeously fine richness. Classy! — 11 years ago
