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.
My review: I would leave this wine on the shelf. The nose was lovely. It included a variety of mixed fruits. However the first taste was very bitter. The mid pallet had a hint of apple but it was still EXTREMELY bitter. The tail of the wine was acidic and burned. This wine did not suit my pallet.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
