Light citrus, mineral bite. Crispy, light, not overbearing but not very bold. Have chilled on a warm day!

My new favorite white. Subtle aroma with citrus and floral herbal notes. Very dry hint of minerality peachy flavor and good balance of acidity

A great picnic wine for summer. Citrus abundant with a mineral finish. Love it.
