86-88. this one grew on me. was very pedestrian when we first popped it, but it opened up with some nice acidity and character (hazelnuts? grapefruit?). i like the green bottle and label. i think was cheap online somewhere. was good deal if under $8.

I would love to give this wine a 90 but it's just too short. The flavors of pineapple, guava, and kiwi are wonderful and true. They just disappear as soon as they come. The acidity is great, even most awesome chenin blancs are too acidic. Not much of a finish here either but this wine is great at what is does, and what it does is Delicious! Definitely recommended to those who love tropical fruits.

Good seafood wine. Had it with seafood pasta and it cleaned seafood mouth.

crisp with melon and tropical fruits on the nose and palette. Finish is very short. Decent, but not memorable. B-

Crisp, light with good fruit. Sweet but the finish is nice and dry. Good value and excellent on a hot day.
