Drank 12/29/20

A selection from the Costco Wine Advent Calendar.

From 325 mL.

White peach and green apple scents and flavors, with a bit of sweetness on the finish, a bit uncommon for most white bordeaux. I would pair this one with asian food, or oysters, rather than more savory fare. It wasnt great with pasta carbonara.

3/22/6/2/3+50= 86 pts.
