pleasant little wine. Got this as a gift for hosting a derby party last weekend.
The color is pale yellow, no appreciable legs. Nose opens with petrol and eventually softens. Strong notes of apricot, with toast and lavender in tow. The acidity is fairly zippy, but no hint of bitterness. I think this qualifies as "off-dry", but doesn't have any syrupy or botyrized character.
As a comparator, charles smith's kung fu girl is dryer IMO.

Appealing lime and sherbet, turning to tangerine
Acidity in balance. Mid-weight
