Sean Wallner - WSET II

Off-dry with juicy fresh fruits such as pear, pineapple, lemon, peach, apricot, Lychee and yellow apples. Some stone and mineral notes as well as a hint of petrol. I'd be willing to bet this Cuvee has some Riesling in it! Absolutely delicious with great acidity!

Pale yellow in color. Honey, melon and apricot in mouth. Crisp yet off dry finish.

Plenty to love about this wine! Juicy, full and fruity with a dry middle and a lingering tart finish. Refreshing ctrus and pear notes that wrap around your tongue. Delicious.

Fun, fruity, candylike nose with hints of pear, maybe mandarin. It's smooth and flavorful, more steely and mineral driven on the palate. Tingles the tongue a bit- the acidity is just right. I would love to drink this again, maybe at thanksgiving? A picnic? Anywhere!?
