review:
Floral and aromatic in the nose with flavors of lychee, rose, and
sugared pear on the palate. This is the perfect wine to quaff ice cold
on the patio on a sunny afternoon. It is made with early consumption in
mind, and best enjoyed while young. We like pairing this wine with
spicy foods and Asian cuisine as it cools the heat of the food and
complements the intense and exotic flavors.
Your Review:
Its a darker golden color, and a thicker, almost syrup-y texture in the glass. I drank this immediately out of the cabinet, and then after I chilled it for maybe an hour or so. I preferred it chilled. Had an apricot nose that I was able to determine. Maybe something floral. I really enjoyed this wine chilled while I was watching TV at the end of the day. It definitely had something sweet, but was better when chilled a bit. It was less syrupy. I tasted the apricot, or some kind of fruit. I am surprised that this is a 2011 white wine.
I did not have this with food.
