Pale lemon colored with light viscosity legs (12% ABV). The nose has aromas of lemon and lime, grapefruit skin, sea air, white blossom, hard Anjou pear and citrus curd. The palate is dry with medium (+) acidity and a light body- very crisp on the mouthfeel. The flavors echo the citrus notes with salinity and fresh flowers. The pear note is somewhat muted on the palate. The finish is medium in length and refreshing- the tartness and light bodied nature of this varietal really showing through. It begs for some seafood or a salad with a rich dressing. I would give this $14 wine a score of 87 and drink till 2024, making it a 4 star effort. Salut….
