Can a wine be at the same time crisp and creamy? This wine is bright and aromatic but with some creaminess as well though that's probably a lower acidity than any oak. On the nose a get lime and floral, but the palate offers so much more... Pineapple, apricot, enhanced floral, much more lime and minerality, but with a mouthfeel that seems substantial. I don't want to oversell this as, let's be honest, this is an incredibly inexpensive wine. It was actually on sale on top of that. So wow. Seriously, this is priced incredibly low where I live. I'm freaking out.

“... a spicy, aromatic, white blend that has been French oak matured.” Alc. 13.5% but tastes great 👍 Nice if you want to get a little tipsy ðŸĪŠ

Honeysuckle and peach notes. Strong acidity that mellows nicely with food.

Soft taste, not too fruity, but with complex. Very good choice for the price.
