Wine Review: This white gold colored wine opens with a fresh and very inviting green apple like bouquet. On the palate, this medium bodied wine is round, has some viscosity, and displays tangy lime like flavors. The finish is dry and refreshing, but subtle. This is a good summer wine that would pair well with swordfish with drizzled lemon. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: "Lime, melon and Anjou pears intermingle with sweet and tropical fruits such as fig and kiwi to create this delightfully refreshing wine. Hints of grapefruit highlight the mineral qualities of this wine’s suprisingly long finish." – Randy Ullom, Winemaster
