Still loving the crisp varietal expression in a tropical flavored but dry style. Good for sipping or food. A touch woody to my taste, perhaps acacia, but highly drinkable nonetheless.

Pale golden white, excellent clarity. Pineapple and orchard fruit aromas. Flavors of pineapple, guava, litchi, lemon and pear finish. Pleasing skin astringency in finish and aftertaste. Some barrel character as well, presumably neutral wood. This wine is going fairly tropical but it’s a lovely pairing to my seafood and tofu yellow curry. Still a winner
