Shop Review: This wine has a spring-like nose of fresh white peaches, pears, green apple, green melon and hints of jasmine and rose petals. On the palate, it has a beautiful structure and acidity with fruit flavors and plenty of body. Well-balanced, this wine displays a pleasant freshness with citrus notes and a long finish.
My Review: This wine had a very light yellow color. Contrary to the shop review, I thought the nose smelled like soap and hand sanitizer - not very spring like. I could also smell some floral notes and pear. On the palate, I felt the wine was moderately acidic with a light body. On the finish, the floral aspects of this wine came came through. It felt like I had a been chewing on a spring time fresh scented fabric sheet that you use in the dryer. I didn't enjoy this wine very much and tasted this without food.
