Virginia Petit Manseng
Virginia, USA
This is a screamingly brilliant dry Petit Nanseng. The nose is of aromatic tropical fruits, primarily at ripe pineapple. On the palate, the fruit goes to honeyed pineapple with laser-like passionfruit acidity. I just want to sit on the porch and drink this all afternoon long.

Petit Manseng. Pretty good, if a bit sweet (2% residual sugar). Strong smell of honeycomb to my nose, went well with spicy Thai basil chicken!
