Grapefruit-flavored wine. The intense grapefruit flavor is then followed by a sweeter peach flavor that does not match. It would be like combining anchovies with ice cream. Likely this clash is due to the flavor difference between the Malvasia and Riesling. The two grapes never integrate into one flavor, even after the wine was open for a long time. Disappointing.
