Color of slightly deeper egg white with a touch of green hue. Nose of mineral, honey, green apple, and a bit gasoline. I would mistake her for Riesling. Taste is light with salty mineral and honey note, some acidity from citrus, quite clean and pleasant. Aftertaste of similar notes from taste with quite long grapefruit like acidity and zest, and a bit warmth. She is above average.

Crisp tropical fruits as one would expect. A nice zing puts it more towards pineapple. #garagiste

Full fruits, little spice, smooth and not too sweet. Really lovely sipping wine.
