One of the sweeter whites I've had recently, but perfect for a savory crêpe brunch. Some nice lilac and blossom notes and lots of pear.

Slightly off dry with lovely stone fruit and woodsy (not oak) notes. Clean and wonderful.

Too dry to match spicy Thai, but makes a noble effort with its bright fruit and cleansing acidity. A very solid rendition of dry Vouvray

That’s a sweetie honey pie baby, I like her with a a light-your-mouth-on-fire dish for contrast, on her own she’s a little too much for me, like how many times at you going to caress my cheek and call me snookums? Nice lil minerality and floral notes too.

Floral scent, very peachy on the palate.. also some notes of apricot and grapefruit .. it’s a perfect balance between dry and sweet. It works well for dinner and desserts.

Smells high in alcohol. Crisp green apple, tangerine, stone fruit, lemon. Perfume/floral.
