Wine Review: We recently attended a large party and this wine was served as the white choice for the evening. This wine was quite the crowd pleaser. They moved a lot of it. The wine opens with a fresh and steely bouquet. On the palate, the wine is very easy to drink and tasty. It is very well balanced between its fruit and acidity. The finish is slightly dry and quite refreshing. We really enjoy this wine. You will enjoy it poolside or as a nice complement to a chicken, broccoli, and pasta dish with a nice white sauce. - Ken

Winemaker Notes: A beautiful wine with a light golden pale robe and greenish highlights, with muscat like aromas and notes of licorice. It has excellent roundness to it, ready to drink now!
