Green mango, hint of jasmine essence, waxy bouquet. Really, really subtly lovely bouquet. Could smell for eons.
Slight effervescence. Mineral quality dancing with apricot fruit and bracing acidity gives this a welcome chewiness.
There’s something unrefined and natural about this that’s absolutely beautiful and earthy. It’s not trying to be anything it isn’t. It just is.
I love things like that, the true quality of itself. True, natural, earth, sunlight, tasty. — 5 years ago
Really really good white. Had in the Hamptons with college friends — 5 years ago
really nice orange wine from finger lakes. Honeysuckle, tropical fruit 🥭, really nice finish a little more savory, maybe coriander? — 5 years ago
Great Bordeaux blend. Jammy fruit with herbaceous notes and plenty of dusty tannins. Definitely a late bloomer and coming into its own right now.

Perfumed and floral with a nice earthy blackberry thing going on. Slow bloomer drinking beautifully. Compares to ‘09 — 2 months ago

Honey, oranges, mangoes, peaches. All the tropicals.
Ah man, Bloomer Creek just makes me happy. Every time I see their bottles at a retailer, I pretty much have to cop it. Today it was from Frankly Wines in TriBeCa.
Great selection and knowledge at this shop.
A little character in this one, reminding me a bit of an orange wine. Dry and got a nice minerality, but also a honeycomb sweetness and finally a bit of a zing (kind of like the herby citrusy crossover that pine needles have). I went on a guided hike in the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Biologist guide pointed out all the things we could eat in the forest. And we did. No one got sick. My dad told long, unnecessary stories to the other troop members. Ah, simpler times.
This is a glass where you close your eyes, everything else melts away, and you enjoy the simplicity, the balance, the crisp sips. — 5 years ago
Apple cider, mulling spices, cinnamon top note, yellow raisins baking on a pizza.
Fine, fine bubbles. Beads of freshness bursting with vivacity and life. Strong apricot and mango. Fruit forward, but also herbaceous on the mid palate. A bit of thyme, a bit of sage. Slight grapefruit astringent note right at the end.
Just enough to round out a full complexity of flavors. Super refreshing. Chill to the max and enjoy with an array of cheeses, on a lawn chair, with Indian food, or like me, post vegan Mexican from Jajaja watching a movie about extraterrestrial life. What can I say? I’m a nerd in more than a few ways.
Another winner from Bloomer Creek. The Guwerz comes first, then this, then the 100% Riesling. — 6 years ago

This is Riesling?? Butterscotch and green apple on the nose. The palate is susprisingly round, almost buttery, with a strange, thistly, outdoorsy quality. Unlike anything else. — 5 years ago

Extraordinary Riesling. Expressive nose of white flowers and honey and dried apples and old river rocks sticky with honey. The palate is bone dry, like an old conch shell full of grilled herbs. Nervy and chalky and electric and delicious. Made for a pour pairing with a spicy vodka sauce due to the intense, martini-like dryness. — 5 years ago
Nice FLX Riesling with a bit of funk. Peaches and pears, with some skin contact adding body. A bit of oxidation lends a sherry-like character to it. — 6 years ago

Deep purple, ink color. Aromas of baking spices (clove and allspice), blackberry jam and cola. The 15.6% Alcohol / Vol took a bit to dissipate. Incredible flavors of blackberry, dark chocolate cherry cordial and baking spice finish. Killer wine.
