Aridus Vineyards Malvasia Bianca 2023, Arizona

Light golden in color.

Fruity nose of citrus, mangoes, lichee, yellow apples and honey.

Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.

Off dry on the palate with melons, pineapples, apples, pears, light herbs, mangoes, honeydew, light spices and light butterscotch.

Nice finish with tropical fruits and spices.

This is such a fun wine to drink. Rich and fruit forward. Nicely balanced, with enough acidity to balance the sugars. Refreshing with nice complexity.

Easy drinking and dangerously good. I couldn't stop drinking it.

Good by itself as a sipping wine, and a good party wine too.

100% Malvasia Bianca grapes were picked at night, and aged in stainless steel vats. A small production of 5,000 bottles.

10.1% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$40.

Really great tropical fruit, green apple, a hint of acidity, but this is a great daytime sipper. Definitely on the sweeter side, but not sweet.
