Winery Review: The wine has a spring-like nose of fresh white peaches, pears, green apple, green melon and hints of jasmine and rose petals. On the palate, it has a beautiful structure and acidity along with fruit flavors and plenty of body. Well-balanced, this wine displays a pleasant freshness with citrus notes and a long finish.

My Review: When I smelled this wine, I thought I would really enjoy it because it smelled so sweet. It gave off hints of red berries. When I tasted it though it was much more bitter than I would like. It had a bitter aftertaste as well.

I tasted this wine with no food.
