A not so buttery varietal, not heavily oaked. Herbal flavors and smooth finish. Hints of lemon, apricots, and sage.

Nice everyday wine with tropical fruit and citrus on palate but also elegant. Great price point.

Oak bomb. All I tasted was buttered popcorn and vanilla maybe there was stone fruit somewhere.

Not too sweet, not too dry. Good with paella? Fried artichokes or fish & chips, tempura green beans?
