Tasting:

She said: I didn’t think I would like a wine with a mineral flavor but I was wrong. It was as delicious before lunch as well as with it. I could smell a hint of floral bouquet occasionally but the mineral taste of the wine predominates for me. Equally good with the sweet potato fires as with the mushroom sandwich, this wine was medium dry with medium body and a pleasant acidity that lasted into the mineral tasting finish
Comments: We had this wine at a restaurant, but at the wine store price (under $10) it would be a good value and a recommended buy.
