This had a lovely, floral nose with notes of honey and grapefruit. There were some nice honeydew melon and apricot flavors, but I could not get past the tangy bitterness on the back palate that tasted like I was chewing on an orange peel. The whole experienced seemed disjointed and off-balance to me. 50% Semillon, 40% Sauvignon Blanc, 10% Muscadelle. 11/18/22.

Food friendly but not much memorable about it.
