Tasting:

She said: With the light golden color and floral bouquet this wine was a great introduction to our Greek dinner full of flavors of lemon, olive oil and oregano. The flavors of the wine complemented the dinner nicely and lasted into the medium long finish with a slight tartness at the very end. The acidity was especially pleasing with the salad as well as with the lemon in the chicken. A delightful pairing experience and a bargain wine at $11.70
