Bright pale lemon with aromas of stone fruit and citrus scents. On the palate flavors of apple and pear with citrus lemon zest with hints of salinity. Well balanced with pleasant lively acidity, finishing with mineral, citrus and wet stone nuances on the medium+ ending. Very nice, good value.

12.5%. Eye catching blue glass bottle. The wine is actually pretty good almost tastes like a blend of a sauvignon blanc and a Riesling. Very powerful lemon notes, lemon curd, touch apple hint herbaceous. This is definitely a nice bottle - i wonder how this would age it as some stuffing.
