This wine is straw colored. Its nose gives up strong aromas of stone fruit laced with oak. There is a floral aspect in there, but it has to fight its way past the peach, pear, and apricot notes. The palate is fairly tame. Pear, apricot, and oak dance together again. It’s a pleasing taste, but fairly straightforward. The low level of acidity prevents it from being a good wine for pairing with food. I used it for cooking a lemon-butter sauce and was pleased. It will also serve as a poolside sipper when given a nice chill.
