OFF DRY! Apparently, there are two separate versions of this wine. You can see in the second photo that one of them is an off dry, verging on sweet. I just lugged this as part of a case of wine brought to Tahiti for my wife’s 50th birthday. I can’t give it a rating because I was so shocked that it was off dry. It’s not awful, but it was just such a surprise. I should have read the label 😯

Very crisp, mineral nose, very fresh with not much complexity. Equally clipped on the palate, very dry and crystalline. More like a young Chablis than a typical GV. Not what I expected but a lovely wine.

Powerful fruit. Like sauvignon blanc (think grapefruit — it's still on my bucket list to taste a gooseberry). Light hints of greenness in the nose, but less than what I am accustomed to with Austrian examples. And it was pure bright fruit and minerals on the palate for me. Very slightly almondy.
