Winery review:  
Delightfully sweet with lush fruity aromas. Hints of citrus skip across flavors of juicy peach and ripe apricots. A bright, crisp finish dances in at the end. It’s a bit sweeter than our Riesling. 

My review:  Initially the wine smelled very fruity - hints of citrus and peach.  It smelled very sweet and had no noticeable spice to it.  Upon tasting the wine, my sense of smell was validating seeing as this wine tasting almost exactly like it smelled.  The wine seemed a bit one-dimensional in its fruit flavor.  There was a bit of heat to the wine while swallowing leading me to believe it wasn't very well balanced.  Overall, a decent, sweet wine to casually drink with friends.



I tasted this on its own without food.
