Winery review: Fruit-forward and tangy, this light-bodied, snappy white offers flavors of guava, apricot, candied grapefruit zest and stone. Drink now. 20,000 cases made.
Personal review: The nose was floral and had a hint of sweetness. There was also an underlying tone of green apple and some citrus fruit. On the palate this light bodied wine had a green apple tangy-ness and a grapefruit tartness. This wine was very pleasant and had a creamy finish to it. I have never had this varietal before, but I would pair it with some creamy cheeses such as havarti or brie.
