Wine Review: The straw colored white blend opens with a very fragrant apricot jam and tangerine bouquet. On the palate, the wine is medium bodied, acidic and crisp. The flavor profile is a mineral infused peach and green apple blend with hints of grapefruit and tangerine in the background. The finish is dry and its flavors linger nicely. This wine paired very nicely with my crispy scallops with sweet potato and bacon hash at Pairing Bistro in Bel Air, Maryland. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Brilliant and refreshing, this bottling of our remarkable blend bursts with an array of delightful aromas, opening with fresh lemon, juicy honeydew melon, pomelo and sweet mango, complemented by soft orange blossom and carnation floral notes. The palate is crisp and mouth-watering, leading with luscious papaya, yellow pear and ruby grapefruit flavors that are balanced by hints of sweet tangerine and white tea. The juicy fruit flavors linger through the clean and lively finish. Try it with a flavorful Thai curry, a sushi dish, such as a spicy tuna roll, or seared halibut.
