Mother's Day would be incomplete without this wonderfully salacious wine. Hints of rotten skunk meat combined with the boisterous flavor of an Incan tribewoman's breath create a journey of self regret and questionable morals whilst consuming. Pairs terribly with food. Producer is wanted by the French government for embezzlement.

Smells of pears w/ a touch of flint. Medium body, a bit sweet but plenty of tart acidity. Enjoyed this w/ spicy squid stir-fry

Paired with Macademia crusted mahimahi over a warm bed of wild rice and topped with mango, blood-orange salsa. Perfect! Holy Yum!

Terrific value. But lacks the counteracting acidity and minerality of higher level Vouvray Demi-secs.

This is a very nice transition wine for someone that only drinks sweeter wines.
