Havana South Wine Club - Wines of Veneto (Havana South): Very interesting nose of cantal cheese and mushroom. Surprising that there's no oak given the earthier aromas (I've seen oak present this way in Cali chards, Stefania...). Palate. Notable lack of sweetness with an interesting character and a rather sauerkraut-y flavor and tartness. Light body, low alcohol, med+ acid, tart. Good and interesting. $14

quaffable, but forgettable. greenish-straw color in the glass. the nose smelled like a sherry fino (actually, the nose smelled like the sherry bodegas in jerez), which is not a good thing for me and my preferences. the palate did offer some pinot grigio flavors of apples, but these reminded me of bruised red apples that have been sitting on your kitchen counter for a few too many weeks. and the mouth was very flabby. i probably just waited too long to drink this, but it was certainly underwhelming.

Not too dry. Smooth finish. Not bad for the price and would buy again

Interesting blend. Good but not great.
