Review: “Light-bodied slightly sweet white wine; medium pale slightly greenish
yellow. Inviting fresh white peach aroma and flavors. Easy to drink and not
complicated, but what's there is very pleasant, and flavors develop in the
glass." ~ Winery notes
My Review: This wine found in an extremely large bottle was
a white wine. Unfortunately, the exact color could not be determined from the
residual red wine in the glass before the pour. The smell was sugary and floral,
like a lilac and a hibiscus. This wine in the mid palate developed a peach and
pear flavor which balanced quite nicely through the medium length after taste.
This was a sweet wine through the whole tasting but the floral sweetness
transformed more into fruity sweetness.
Food: This wine was tasted with no food due to tasting it at
the Vintage Cellar.
