Winery review: Brilliant straw color with emerald reflections. Fresh and floral bouquet
with a hint of pears, apricots and bananas. Fresh and inviting with
bright fruit and an easy drinking style with a pleasing hint of almonds
in the aftertaste. Pairs well with seafood dishes, risottos with scampi,
spaghetti with clams, sole in white wine Perfect also as an aperitif.
My review: The nose of this wine gave me an a very crisp almost grapefruity tint. The tasting brought a very light fruity dryness. It also gave me a slight tart hint to make my mouth pucker. It had a very light, almost non-existent finish. I would most likely not try this wine again, as it was too dry with not a whole lot going on for it.
This wine was tasted on its own with no food.
