TASTE: very minerally; light tropical fruit (papaya and passionfruit); finish is light and of short length; 12.5% alc. is not noticeable; a wonderful wine to drink by the poolside on a hot summer day. Not complex or profound, very good for what it is. As with all of their wines, Crasto used only their own grapes in the production of this wine.

A bit underwhelming - chunky with little defined fruit - maybe just not my thing

BODY: light green-yellow color; medium-light bodied.
