Winery 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 green apple smell and also a hint of pear as well. The taste had a definite lemon to it and and nice citrusy melon taste to it. It was slightly acidic. I really enjoyed this wine. It would be a nice wine to drink on a nice spring or summer day with the wine being chilled.
I did not try this wine with food.
