Winery Review (Wine and Spirits): Full of fruit, a lasting peach flavor targeted with laserlike acidity through the finish. It has the bite of salty ocean air and a lot of zing. For langoustines.
My Review: I found this wine to be very light-bodied, however the acidity certainly dominated. On the nose, I detected a lot of fruit (pineapple) and sweetness. On the palate, the acidity essentially drowned out the fruity aromas and tastes. The taste didn't last too long, but the wine definitely dried out my mouth. Overall, I wasn't the biggest fan of this wine.
