This wine has aged very well. It's a bright yellow with significant tropical fruit. Medium finish. Dry and crisp. Very food friendly. Paired well with Sharma chicken and assorted greens.

my previous note still holds up. this is crisp, refreshing, and filled with lime. it paired wonderfully with a grilled turkey breast marinaded in lime and tequila. this is a great value wine for $10.

Interesting wine. Quite dense/viscous on the palate. Apricots, lemon and some tropical fruits, reminiscent of a viognier. Good acidity and not a bad sipper, but not really my flavor profile. Improved after few days in the fridge.

Grapefruit and floral palate; apricot nose. I really like it, though certainly won't pair with certain foods.
