Shop Review: Spring-like nose of fresh white peaches, pears, green apple, green melon, and hints of jasmine and rose petals. On the palate, it has a beautiful structure and acidity along with fruit flavors and plenty of body. Well balanced, this wine displays a pleasant freshness with citrus notes and a long finish.

My Review: This white definitely lived up to its description. The initial smell was undoubtedly citrus; I guessed some pear and pineapple. Its taste was light, fruity, with a stronger palate than other whites I've tried thus far. This is a wine that I could see going very well with food, as it's not overpowering.
Tasted without food.
