Winery Review: "Greenish gold. Subtle aromas of mint, lemon, and orange, with a hint of honeysuckle. Dry, understated and focused, offering clean citrus and melon flavors and slow-building sweetness. Finishes dry and brisk, with an echo of lemon. As usual, this is an outstanding value" (Vintage Cellar).
My Review: I was rather disappointed in this wine, because it possessed wonderful citrus and mint aromas that would suggest it would have wonderful flavors and textures that would excite my palate. However, after my official taste I couldn't detect any of the above flavors on my tongue, which left me rather unethused by this wine. The flavors were almost to suble and the wine too dry for me to be able to gain anything from this wine. Will probably take a pass on this wine and save my money on white wines with a little more body and character.
