Not unlike a light refreshing trocken kabinett Riesling. Predominate flavor/nose is lime zest, which made it go gangbusters with crushed cornflake-encrusted fried fish filets with Mexican salsa verde, lime, and cilantro. This should make a terrific partner for quite a few other light summery Mexican dishes, especially with lots of lime and/or salsa verde.

Maybe a shade lighter in the glass than the Sauvignon; "cool" nose with white fruits and minerality.
More here than the Sauvignon; tart on the palate, reasonable persistence on the finish - in short, tasty with some added complexity/nuance, and also a refreshing pause from the high humidity.

Another look at this (my last bottle) - very light yellow in the glass, with a crisp, minerally nose that is quite pleasant.
Tart and crisp on the palate - nice, but probably not a wine that should be cellared for much longer, IMO.

An interesting variety that reminds me of a cross between a Trocken Riesling and Sauvignon blanc. We both enjoyed it.

Crisp and tart with some grassy and faint petrol notes. Reminded me of a cross between Sauvignon blanc and Riesling.
