Winery Review: 

-"
The Washington Post: Great Value! Treat this terrific little white like a red: Don’t chill it too much, then let it open for a half-hour to develop its enticing tropical fruit flavors. It’s dry, but the fruit gives an appealing illusion of sweetness. Great as an aperitif or with light seafood dishes.”


My Review:

-89 Points
-I enjoyed this wine quite a bit. It had a strong pear nose with hints of citrus fruits. This wine tasted almost exactly as it smelled--very heavy pear with light citrus taste. This wine was bitter and a little hot on this finish but, overall, I liked it. I tried this wine on its own without food.
