Surprised how fresh it still tasted. Visible petillance. The nose has acquired a strong petrol bouquet along with lime and wet stone. On the palate, some stone fruit and citrus. Has lot some of its acidic backbone but nevertheless a great food wine. Always a favorite.

I love this wine. Not because it's a great wine, but it is a great experience. Light, low alcohol, slightly fizzy, refreshing, a little green, nice citrus...kind of like a cross between Fresca,tonic, and limeade and I mean that in a good way. It's the perfect on a hot day (like today in LA). Works with outdoor food (think hot links and cole slaw)...A winner at parties...it's very inexpensive and it reminds me of Portugal.

A winner once again. This wine is a beautiful warm afternoon on the patio. Simple and comforting. Drink up any remaining 2007s soon.

Light, fruity wine with a hint of lemon. Great food wine - fun without being complex. One of the better QPRs I've found.
