Tree fruit, petroleum jelly, some mineralty. Possibly a bit of white pepper. Tasty and enjoyed by everyone but a little rough around the edges. The flavors are there, but not really put together well and lacking depth. A dryness, almost slightly tannic sensation (?) on the finish. Very interesting. 87 and a big buy at $10 Drink on the colder side

Maybe with the 89 point rating I am scoring this a bit high, I am not sure, but with the warmer weather coming in, this was a really a refreshing wine. A light clear yellow colored wine with 12.0% alc, it gave off tropical aromas, lichi, peaches and slight bit floral. It tasted of lichi, peach and some tropical fruit as well. Drink it now, a reasonably priced wine that will even be better as we head to mid 90s temperatures.

Clean and refreshing with nice lime and lemon flavors. Good acidic balance. Not very complex, but pleasant.

Lots of fruit. Nice acidity. Not nearly on the same playing field as the OS, but still a good value. 85-87

Light, but zippy with a nice crisp edge.
