Clear, straw colored wine with some gold flecks, the nose is intriguing. Yellow pear, yellow apple, lemon verbena and a slight hint of malolactic fermentation but the palate leads more towards tart fruits. Kiwi, pear, lemon pith and lime zest bring the tartness while the body is lighter than even a sauvignon blanc and the acidity is moderate as well. If you have a chardonnay and a sauvignon blanc and they had a baby, this might be it.

I really prefer red wines but this is a perfect summer wine. I would describe the taste as clean and crisp. It is not sweet which is why I loved it.

Eh. Not the best. Little too sweet and thick for my taste. World Market.

A little too off-dry for me. Lots of orchard fruit.
