Ashy aroma, slightly metallic and acidic taste upfront with a burst of strawberry finish. Lovely on its own and weight enough to have with tuna steak. — 2 years ago
Delicious wine from the canary islands! Acidic, funky, interesting, I swear I can taste the sea air. Bought in the Hobart book village, had with shrimp scampi and clams. — 4 years ago

Nearly 8 years old and the acidity is still off the charts. Love it. Little smoky note on the nose and rocky notes at the end—so volcano. Lots of cherry with a bit of raspberry zip in the middle. Moderate-minus tannins. Wish it lingered longer. — 10 months ago

Green apples, bee pollen, yellow plums and tomatoes, hay, sweat, barnyard funk and gasoline. A deep and expansive flavor with a satisfyingly salty finish. Love this wine- it’s a trip. — 8 years ago
Lemon, flinty, bright, and a slightly saltish finish. Delish! Wish I had more — 4 years ago

Color: Deep gold to amber around the rim. Why is the color gold for a young wine? *** I don’t know, maybe skin contact, or oxidative wine making style? @brianmcclinticms @envinatewine

Nose: Not floral, not citrus, spices (cinnamon, fennel seeds)

Taste: Good structure, soft acidity throughout, sweet spice taste, interesting that it’s packing quite a bit of tannins for a white wine from mid-palate through long finish. — 7 years ago
