Stone fruit and a bit of petrol on the nose, nice sweetness and acidity on the tongue. Short finish, not enough complexity to mean anything. Decent enough to buy cheap and enjoy cold.

Very nice, zesty wine with flavours of fresh fruit and citrus. Bouquet has a surprising whiff of petrol that may be off putting but shouldn't deter.

Mineral floral aromas. Effervescent citrusy lemon flavor. Cools the palate.

Light, smooth, and sweet. I would have preferred a stronger taste though.
