The wine is a pale amber in the glass while the nose is a rather subdued combination of pear and violets. The taste is quite well developed, with lovely flavors of pear, violet and a good bit of minerality. It's not as crisp and shocking to the palate like some white wines can be, but rather has more subdued acidity and a full mouthfeel that makes it almost seem more like a nice red wine. This finish is quite nice with ripe fruit notes throughout, making this an ideal summer patio sipping wine.
Overall I would rate this one a solid 7.5, as it's a nice white wine that even I could enjoy! Tonight I am pairing all of these lovely wines with thin crust pizza with roasted veggies, but it would be great with lighter fare, like a baked cod or lemon pepper chicken breast. Salut!
