Dry with strong citrus flavors. Very nice for a hot summer day.

Drank it with some crabcakes and it worked nicely. I find that the colder I drink it, the more I enjoy it. Going on vacation next week and plan on bringing a few bottles to drink on the front porch.

Citrus showed through strongly with a bit of musk melon noticeable as well. A bit of acidity one the end, the more I drank the better it got. Only slightly dry on the finish Definitely a great buy.

Citrus and melon with just a touch of oaky vanilla; some vegetal qualities. Nicely balanced. Long finish.

Solid wine. Nice balance of fruit and oak. Not as citrus-y or pineapple-y as I would like, but really nice for the price.
