The Vintage Cellar's Review: "Fresh and crisp, it has a beautiful, floral bouquet. It is wonderful with appetizers, fish, chicken, and salads."
My Review: This wine had a very heavy floral bouquet. The strength of the aroma surprised me given the wine's delicate color. The flavor was very nice, and evolved smoothly over the palate. I initially detected floral notes similar to that experienced on the nose. This was followed by a strong, fresh, fruitiness, consisting mainly of a sweet apple flavor over the mid palate. The finish was slightly dry, but this contrast with the wine's sweetness was just subtle enough to work. I would try this wine again to further explore its complexity.
This wine was tasted without food.
