Tasted by Mike Supple - 15 Dec 2008
Pale gold core with a clear rim. Light aromas of honeydew, yellow pear and a touch of stone. Nice entry into the mouth - round and fuller than expected from a Pinot Grigio. Flint and melon flavors with a nice concentration of lemon, peach and a touch of cream. Round and lush through the finish.

Medium gold with a bright rim. The Riesling really lifts the aromas out of the glass giving a bright white flower nose with white licorice and sweet candied citrus peel. Dry and crisp entry onto the palate with apricot and yellow apple flavors. Nice acid and balance leading to a medium length finish. A fun little wine.
30% Chardonnay, 30% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Riesling, 10% Pinot Grigio.
