This was such a fun taste. Brought to me by a customer after discussing Chinese and Japanese wines. Drinks like the Kerner you’d find in Italy. Fresh floral, pineapple, pears, and white peppercorn on the finish — 6 years ago

Golden straw. Very elegant aromas of wet turf, potting soil, sea spray, and dried apricots in the background. Subtle malt flavors, vanilla, and fresh tobacco. Full mouthfeel with a long finish. — 8 years ago

White Rhone that is creamy lavender and honey suckle. It really tastes like Provence. First time drinking a wine that reminds of the actual place. Magical with Hokkaido scallop and rose wine poached octopus — 8 years ago

Candylike aromas on the nose of pear and red apple, bubblegum, cherry blossom. Sweet cherry blossom and honey on the palate with a big dose of anise, red and black licorice. Pure and crystalline but just a bit oversweet and medicinal to me. — 8 years ago
