Winery Review: 30% malolactic fermentation, 30% was aged in French oak barrels. Brilliant yellow golden color with green hints. The wine is crisp and filled with white peach, pear, green apples flavors, toasty vanilla. Elegant and luscious wine, well balanced. Crisp and long finish. Pairs well with creamy soups, pork, veal, vegetables.
My Review: This light yellow wine exuded gentle fruit smells that caressed my nasal passageways like a whispering breeze in late spring. It had a slightly tart flavor with a fruity finish.
I tasted this wine on its own, without food.
