Winery Review: This bleached blonde beauty is reminiscent of fresh green apples, pineapple, and has hints of hibiscus blossoms. The concentration of zesty lemon and gooseberry fills your mouth leaving notes of thyme and melon behind. The bright acid in this wine gives you a zing while the fruit keeps your mouth watering for more. This wine pairs beautifully with a grilled prawn salad with a grapefruit vinaigrette, veggie spring rolls, or grilled tilapia with mango salsa.
My Review: The wine was a crisp, clear color. I enjoyed the nose very much. It was very fruity reminding me of summer. I was also reminded of the beach because I could smell some sort of sunscreen lotion or beach smell mixed together. The taste was citrusy, but it was not overrated. It did not interfere with a sweet, crisp finish. I enjoyed drinking it on its own.
I did not have it with any food.
