Pale, star-bright in color; citrus, apricot, and a bit of herbaciousness on the nose; light bodied, bright acidity, citrus on the palate; medium+ finish w/more citrus and herbal notes. Crisp and refreshing--a nice wine for $14.

Very pale, pungent nose of gooseberry, grass. In the mouth it is quite lean and light bodied with bright acidity, the fruit is crisp, green gooseberry. The finish is very long with minerality and chalkiness and a salaine characteristic. Interesting wine.
