Wine Review: This pale straw colored blend of Viura and Malvasia from Spain is a very good value. It opens with a mild green apple bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, slightly acidic and mouthwatering. The flavor profile is a tasty mineral infused lime and tart green apple blend with hints of grapefruit. The finish is dry and its refreshing fruit flavors linger nicely. This white wine is a very nice, inexpensive summer offering that would pair well with grilled swordfish kabobs. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Pale yellow with greenish glints. The nose surprises you with an attractive explosion of exotic aromas, wild herbs and dill. On the palate, a perfect balance of acidity and alcohol, with a fresh, long finish.
