90 Points, California Grapevine - VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Floral, grassy, citrus and green apple aroma with hints of gooseberry, orange blossom, and jasmine; herbal, grassy flavors with crisp acidity and a silky mouthfeel; lingering aftertaste. Shows prominent grassy varietal character hinting of a New Zealand style and developing with airing in the glass.
Tasting Notes
Luscious, deep scents of lemon grass, grapefruit and passion fruit jump from the glass to proudly proclaim this wine's varietal. A generous, fruit-forward palate shows juicy citrus flavors of lime and tangerine, balanced by bright, crisp acidity. The pleasant finish persists on the palate with great length of flavor. This is an easy-sipping, eminently drinkable wine that doesn't sacrifice complexity or varietal character in its quest to be flat-out enjoyable. The perfect aperitif, this wine also makes an ideal partner to oysters and nearly any shellfish, as well as salads and light fish and chicken dishes.
