{diam, 12.5%} Pale straw/yellow, greenish tinge. Fairly muted nose; greasy-edged vanilla pod aromas; that's about it. Freshly youthful, though. The palate is a bit anonymous; oak-free; it has a generally grassy character to the flavours, but there's a heavy, lemon-oid quality to it as well. Seems fairly low in acid but the wine doesn't really suffer for that; and despite sensible alcohol (according to the label) it's always at the lighter-end of the weight scale. Still with that vanilla character though. Short finish though; can't really muster a truly individual personality on the palate. Interesting to taste, although I think it's not for aging.

Russk. Bought a bottle and liked it again. Clean, light, crisp, fragrant. No jam.
