Winery review: This bleached blonde beauty is reminiscent of fresh green apples, pineapple and has hints of hibiscus blossoms. The concentration of zesty lemon and gooseberry fills your mouth leaving notes of thyme and melon behind. The bright acid in this wine gives you a zing while the fruit keeps your mouth watering for more. This wine pairs beautifully with a grilled prawn salad with a grapefruit.
My review: This wine had a sweet and fruity smell to it. It reminded me of jasmine flowers mixed with honey and sweet citrus.The wine had a lemon tart taste to it and it was really crisp and well balanced. The after taste was like a durian fruit.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
