Pale yellow. Nose of citrus, grass and herbs. Very fresh and lively. Flavors include pear, ripe banana, a touch of lemon, noticeable minerality and a tart finish. Smooth creamy texture which I would have guessed came from oak. Perhaps it did although the winery says this wine was 95% barrel fermented in stainless steel and only 5% in new French oak. My wife and I both liked this and it was a great match for this evening's KFC original recipe fried chicken.

Consistent with previous note and, sadly, our last bottle of this wine.

Consistent with previous note and excellent with this evening's roasted vegetable tart.

Fresh, grassy aromas.
Sweet kiwi, honeydew melon, cucumber, citrus and herb are balanced and refreshing.
Clean finish.
Tasty wine.

Not as good as the 2007 but a great fun wine nonetheless. Will purchase.
