Tart. Sharp then dry on the way down. Citrus is subtle, then hints of pear, peach & even apricot. Lemon & slightly pepper-ey. Almost like a Sauvignon Blanc. If I've ever drank a wine that was ripe, this is it. Hands down my favorite "White Wine" I've ever had.

Crisp. Clean. Very balanced. Slightly dry yet tart with splashes of citrus. Lovely softness on the tongue. Would NOT describe this as "peppery" what so ever. Incredibly smooth. A perfect "cocktail" wine. Doesn't need to be paired with anything. Outstanding.
