Tasted at a fundraiser tasting in Burnsville, MN. Wow, really like this wine. Watery to pale yellow color. Very clear. Aromas are moderate, this youthful wine presents aromas of white flowers, citrus green apple and the oh-so-slight hint of asparagus. Off-dry on the palate, medium-bodied. Fresh acidity and moderate sweet flavors of citrus, green apple and just lovely ripe fruit. 5-7 second finish. Just a lovely wine that would got well as an aperitif or with spicy or asian-type foods. Also maybe sweet foods. Certainly exceeded my expectations for the price. Ordered a few of these at the tasting.

I liked this wine, with my little experience it was difficult for me to determine the flavors, I did detect pear, and I noticed alot of people said the same, I also thought there was apple in this. Maybe it was just me.
We enjoyed the taste, it was recommended by the sales person, we were just looking for something for dinner. It was fairly sweet, and crisp. A nice clean taste, not much of a bad after taste. Only wished I had it colder than it was.

Sweet. Very tremendously sweet. The sweetness covers the rest of the flavors, which was mostly apple. It went well with the spicy crab bisque, which was also sweet.

Peach and lemonzest and a yeasty dough ball on the nose. Good mouthfeel and a nice finish this wine is sweet but transitions nicely into a long slatey finish. A lime zinger in the start a little pineapple juice reduction in the mid palate. Good wine had with a spicy pizza and it was perfect.

This wine iw all over the place. THe acidity is way out of control. I like the lime taste at times, but it brings a fake quality ruins flavors that are already poorly integrated.

Great fruity wine. Not as good as the 2004 but still a delight, especially for the price.
