Shop 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.
My review: The peaches, pears and green apple hit me immediately on first sniff. On the second sniff, I got a hint of citrus and could tell there were some other light fruits but I couldn't pick out anything specific. This was a well balanced wine with good body and I didn't mind the acidity. This wine furthered my scampi craving.
This wine was tasted without food.
