Lemon and grapefruit pith, notes of ginger on the nose and palate. Overly dry and sour for my taste but the body is nice and viscous with a rich mouthfeel.

Lemon, yuzu, pear, pineapple on the nose. This is rather discreet but very inviting. The palate is not to wide, rather marked by its acid backbone, with yellow fruits on the side (pear, pineapple) and some lemony notes. It builds up a notch in mid palate before delivering a short/medium finish with this pear note. This is not great but it's fresh and very welcome after a hard week of work

Very good—crisp, tart, sour fruit—perfect in and with risotto.

Apricots, citrus. Tart but not much acid. Sipping wine. Maybe with risotto, asian food.
