Public review: "Pale golden silver color. Bright floral aromas of peaches, raspberry and honeysuckle with a soft, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a crisp, tart citrus and talc accented finish. A delightful sipper that is sure to please."
My review: Fruity, somewhat sweet. A little bubbly. Very light with a little bit of tang. I can definitely taste the "young grape" in this wine.
With food?: I did not try this wine with food, though the Vintage Cellar provided turkey jerky bits with the tasting. I preferred to sample the wine alone.
Did buy?: Yes!
