Winery Review: 91 Points - Robert Parker (Robert Parker did not review the 2010 but of the 2009 said the following):
"Blended with 5% Viognier; fragrent with restraint, lively acidity, citrus notes add complexity."
Personal Review: This wine smelled a lot like honeydew melon, honeysuckle flowers, and tropical fruits, especially pineapple. The wine also tasted fruity but was pretty acidic, which could not be detected on the nose. The orange peel and grapefruit flavors enhanced the wine's complexity but the wine was also a little too hot and acidic for my taste. I did not have this wine with any food.
