Shop Review: This
bleached blonde beauty is reminiscent of fresh green apples, pineapple and has
hints of hibiscus blossoms. The concentration of zesty lemon and gooseberry
fills your mouth leaving notes of thyme and melon behind. The bright acid in
this wine gives you a zing while the fruit keeps your mouth watering for more.
This wine pairs beautifully with a grilled prawn salad with a grapefruit vinaigrette,
veggie spring rolls or grilled tilapia with mango salsa.
My Review: This wine
had a fruity smell with a surprisingly acidic mid taste. I also tasted some
melon and lemon. The finish was short with some lingering floral elements. I
thought this wine was very refreshing.
I did not try this
wine with food.
