Wine Review: This light yellow colored wine would serve most people well as an affordable everyday white wine. It opens with a pleasant pear and ripe apple like bouquet. On the palate, the wine is round, medium to full bodied, and very easy to drink. The flavor profile is green apple and citrus with very slight mineral notes. The finish is dry and rather subtle. Somedays, you just want an easy going white to serve with dinner. This wine is it. Serve it with baked haddock and enjoy. Cheers - Ken

Winemaker Notes: A fine bright straw-gold colour. An elegant nose that shows touches of toast. Good balance with no excess of alcohol, full-bodied and long. Serve with fine or gently spiced dishes (saffron), grilled fish or fish soup (bouillabaisse).
