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. Best enjoyed
in its youth either by itself, or as a wonderful partner with smoked meats,
mild to medium-strong cheeses, seafood and a great partner for spicy food as
well.
Personal Review: I could really smell the roses and the
apple. The smell really delighted me, it smelled a little like a rose perfume.
Which is one of my favorite scents. Upon tasting I really got the green apple
flavor. It was very fruity and light. However, I did not enjoy the finish. It
was too bitter for me. The after taste ruined the wine for me. I did not pair it with food.
