Review: Light and young, this is a straightforward but enjoyable selection that would be an ideal match for light fare such as grilled chicken salad or fluke. Apple flesh, nectarine, and sweet citrus oil aromas and flavors appear on the nose and palate, while the short finish is infused with a flavor of green melon rind.
My Review: When smelling this wine, I got a very strong smell of grapefruit. That could be because I've been eating a lot of grapefruit lately, but it was the only scent I was able to pick up on. The taste was very sour to me, like sour apple candy with maybe a hint of lime. It was dry, but not too much and I think I would like to try this wine paired with food.
