Pale lemon Medium intensity, Lime, underripe peach, honeysuckle not elderflower, green apple, wet rock . Simple. Dry, high acidity, medium alcohol, medium (-) body, medium intensity and finish BLIC. - needs more fruit for that acid - it feels watery Its a simple wine with little finish or intensity. The simplicity is part of its style. Its a good quality wine. Better examples would be more concentrated, longer and sometimes more complex.
Not suitable for ageing. Simple not going to improve sufficiently
Guesses: Thought of Sauvignon Blanc. I think the florals, high acidi, green nature of the fruit and simplicity took me there.
Mistakes: Totally missed the phenolic bitterness which would have narrowed me down to a few European grapes and SB would not have been on the list
Also missed the raw almond that came up on the flavor profile when examined

Pale straw colour with a very subtle nose, pear, lemon, unripe melon. Medium acidity, light body and very light on the palate with the same notes of unripe pear, melon, lemon and a short finish. Not very complex, but it can be a refreshing, easy drinking wine.

Good but not great. Very pale straw color with a nose of pineapples, green apples and a bit of honey. More tart apples on tasting with medium alcohol, lively acidity and a grapefruit finish. Crisp and clean wine but not a lot of complexity.
Paired with tilapia fish tacos with mango Cole slaw. It went well but the lime of the tacos and the vinegar of the slaw muted some of the flavors.

Sweet and syrupy on the front end at first when it was 50 deg F; better balanced as it warmed. A little effervescence effect from minerality & acid on the finish. Taste of pineapple. Rating of 82 seems about right. I'd rather have Villa Maria Private Reserve Sauv Blance at 2/3 of the price.

Herbal and green grass notes with citrus. Acidic, dry, 12.5 ABV. Really quite good compared to other Italian Pinot Grigio
