Winery Review: Spring-like nose of fresh white peaches, pears, green apple, green melon, and hints of jasmine and rose petals. On the palate, it has a beautiful structure and acidity along with fruit flavors and plenty of body. Well balanced, this wine displays a pleasant freshness with citrus notes and a long finish.
My Review: I tried this wine at the Vintage Cellar with some friends. It had a floral aroma. The flavors matched the flowery smell, with slight hints of fruit, maybe grapefruit and other acidic flavors. Sharp tinge. Light, slightly spicy. A little tannic. I did not try this with food.
