Tasting:

She said: Clear with lots of thin moving along legs. Mild aroma with notes of sweet fruit to almost floral but the fruit quickly moved forward. The taste was dominated at first by fruit but a minerality came through and lasted through the finish. Medium bodied, smooth and with pleasant acidity the wine was tasty with the onion soup and good sipping alone. At over $20 it is not a bargain wine.
