Amazing nose. That Drakes coffee cake cinnamon ribbon type ish. So beautiful. Edgy and beautiful spicy cinnamon palate. So elegant. Not rich at all. Very much on the lacy and lithe end of spectrum. Very very cool. Cinnamon stick and acid finish. Wow. Very light flavors. Very beautiful wine. Gentle. Gentle. GREAT — 12 years ago

Tangy salinity and dried orange peel, the acidity suppresses most of the sweetness. A real treat. — 12 years ago

Buckwheat, candied orange, dried mushrooms which all follow on the palate lead to an intense, bright, almost vinegar-like high level acidity. What a wine. There isn't enough. Just delicious. — 12 years ago
