Pale lemon with crisp stone fruit and citrus aromas. On the palate apple, pear and melon flavors with lemon citrus. Medium finish ending with fruit, spice and floral mineral tang. Grab some Sushi.

Had to let this warm up, but when it did it was a real treat. White fruit and stone fruit initially dominate. White peach and green apple with some lemon juice. Has a crisp and almost sour puckering feel, moderately dry and light bodied.

A bit leaner and spritzer than Rias Baixas brethren, a touch of phenolic bitterness, but all in all quite quaffable.

Young, crispy, fresh, low alcohol content, good for a Saturday afternoon with a good company.
