Pale straw colored with some effervescence and medium viscosity (12% ABV). The nose has intense aromas of lemon zest, grapefruit, white blossom, passion fruit, Bartlett pear and a white phenolic note. The palate is dry, a touch bitter and has a medium (-) body. Crisp flavors replicate the aromas but with a slight pithy divergence. It’s an interesting wine for sure- one that is refreshing yet I feel would become tiresome after a while. Made from Viura, this lightweight white would pair well with fresh seafood or a richly dressed salad. Drink now. For $12, it’s a great 88 point wine to pound all summer long. 4 stars. Salut….
