Expert Review: Fruit-forward and tangy, this light-bodied, snappy white offers flavors of guava, apricot, candied grapefruit zest and stone. Drink now. 20,000 cases made.- wine spectator

My Review: This green yellow wine in color was surprisingly crisp on the nose. The lilac and lavender came through with a hint of peach. This was a light bodied wine with very smooth qualities through the after taste. Citrus fruit flavors surfaced such as orange or grapefruit but these were mild and overall the wine had a watery mid palate.

Food: This wine was tasted with no food due to tasting it at the Vintage Cellar.
