This bottle was consumed over two weeks ago but luckily I just came across some notes I wrote while drinking it. The Reserva is a Chardonnay barrel age farmhouse that I had pretty high expectations for and they were pretty much met. The Reserva is a wonderful sour but not too funky or offensive to frighten away the 'sour haters'. My wife being one of them. That's fine, more for me. It has a wonderful peach smell that's nice 'n bright. At the same time you can get that sour whiff which I love. Without even concentrating too much on the flavors as it swirled in my mouth I caught this great pineapple taste with some citrus. Really satisfying. Coats the mouth, as most Saisons will, with a great bread/cereal flavor that seems to rise from the yeast which gave it a lingering finish. I really enjoyed this bottle. Enough to throw one in the cellar. Grab one.cheers
