Vintage Cellar Review: 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 along with fruit flavors and plenty of body. Well balanced, this wine displays a pleasant freshness with citrus notes and a long finish. Best enjoyed in its youth either by itself, or as a wonderful partner with smoked meats, mild to medium-strong cheeses, seafood and a great partner for spicy food as well.

My Review: This was another really good white wine. The aftertaste was a bit spicy which I really enjoyed. I noticed the green apple as noted in the review and liked the hints of the other fruits that were in this one. My friend that I was with ended up purchasing this bottle and we plan on having dinner with it sometime in the near future.

Food: No
