Interesting wine that went well with a thanksgiving turkey dinner. This was an oaky wine that had citrus flavors through out. Went better with dinner than on it's own.

Rich golden color. Nose is tropical fruit and pear, a little tight.
Apple, pear, a little citrus, and a little mango - very interesting, very complex flavors. A hint of minerality. Finish lingers, a tiny bit of a stale flavor. Save for that, this is a very good wine, and a surprising value.
3/5

Tasting on day-2. Nice melody of apple, pineapple. and pear on the nose. Oak was well integrated. Acid was spot on. Great food wine. Perfect pairing with crab cake and grilled asparagus. At $13, this is a buy. My glass is empty and I'm wanting more...

Very nice for the money. Fairly round/fruity/mouth filling but not cloying. This would likely be a crowd pleaser. Went well w/roasted chicken.
