  Beautiful golden color. Fully integrated oak. This wine is fully mature and ready to drink. Rounded and full bodied, more fruit than mineral. Ample acidity to balance out the richness, but a bit lacking in complexity and precision, as would be expected at this price point. Great QPR.

  Golden color with clarity. Sufficient acidity. This also has a suggestion of nectarines or other stone fruits with lanolin. I think this would pair well with a chicken salad with apple chunks, seedless grapes and diced celery. It could also complement halibut, grouper, or haddock.

  Very aromatic nose- primarily apples and wet stone intermingled with hints of lime, pineapples, ocean saline, and a vanilla-toast oak mixture. Sharp acid up front followed by a creamy-coconut-oak finish. Great nose but less stellar palate; doesn't finish clean and the acidity gets harsh fast. Food helped smooth out the acidity; paired to lentils with caramelized celery and kale. Good value ($24.99 Westgate Wine) but not likely to keep in the house as an everyday white Burg.
  Style & Quality: B (85). Value: B+ (88). Overall: B (86).
