  4/2/2014 - cuffthis Likes this wine: 85 Points

  Consistent with the first two bottles I tasted, this one was also very light straw in color and revealed tart citrus and floral elements on the nose. The mouth feel was very light with additional citrus notes, very biting acidity and stone elements. The finish was short and the acidity is over the top.
  
  Purchased for only $7.49US, this zippy white, at only 12.5% ABV, is ideal for summer sipping. It had elements of Vinho Verde style but without the effervescence. I liked it so much I bought more of it for everyday drinking and sharing with friends.
