Wine Review: This very pale yellow wine opens with a fresh air and wet stone like bouquet. On the palate, this light to medium bodied wine is balanced, with zippy acidity, and displays faint lime like flavors with infused minerality. The finish is dry and nicely prolonged. This wine paired nicely with my chicken ravioli and would do well with pork tenderloin as well. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Colour: Brilliant green with hints of gold. Nose: Aromas of green pepper, gooseberry and asparagus. Taste: Crisp and fresh with tropical fruit, underlined by green pepper and a slight grassiness with a long lingering aftertaste.
