Tasting:

She said: Dark canary yellow, clear, with poorly formed legs. Sweet fruity aroma is followed by a fruity taste complemented by a smooth, creamy mouth-feel and a long finish with hints of grapefruit and bitterness. The dinner was admittedly mundane but the wine did nothing for it and was not refreshing because of its creaminess. Sipping it alone after dinner was not much more rewarding but I would try it again with a more appropriate pairing, perhaps shell fish.
Comments: Occasionally we will give a Pending rating to wines that we felt were just not paired well, needed decanting or we thought needed another tasting before we rated them. We than rate the second bottle. If the rating becomes Not Recommended we simply edit the original post; if it gets a Recommended or Quality wine at a Bargain Price rating we post a second tasting.
