I tasted this wine back in May, but somehow misplaced the notes, but that`s okay the majority of you won`t be seeing this wine till January of 2012 when it hits Vintages. It`s a lovely blend of Riesling, Chardonnay and Gewurztraminer ... heavy on the Riesling at 85% ... the nose is peach and floral dominant with a hint of Bartlett pear. On the palate, although it only makes up 5% of the blend, the Gewurzt really pops with floral, spice and some pineapple rind. Good acidity, as you would expect from a 2009 white, with a decent medium-short finish, which will have you going back to the glass again and again. There`s good value here for under $15. Price: $14.95 - Rating: ****+
