"A blend of 66% Chardonnay (fermented in oak barrels), 20% Sauvignon Blanc, and 14% Verdelho, the excellent 2006 White displays notes of honeyed grapefruit, lemon blossom, and a hint of orange rind in a medium-bodied, fruit-driven, lively, fresh style." -Wine Advocate

Fruits on the nose - apple, grapefruit. Almost a little butterscotch taste in there. A sweeter wine, but well balanced IMHO. Shorter finish, but that's fine. Would pick up another bottle.

We agree with Cliff, fruity and slightly sweet but not overly so almost has a grassy finish. A great wine to enjoy on the patio in the summer.

Lots of grapefruit, some lemon zest, and a little peach. Fruity and tart, but not that complex. Very drinkable.

Nice apple and pear on the nose, both of which continue on the palate. I didn't get as much of the citrus and tart flavors some people got. Nice, but not great acidity. A little oak, but not much. It falls perfectly into that "personal house wine" category, where you always have a bottle lying around.

I am still sick so I can't taste anything, and I put ice in it (horror), so anything I say is very suspect, but I think this is a standout mineral wine devoid of annoying fruit and flower notes.
