Critic Review: Citrus
and gooseberry aromas are mild but typical of the variety. A basic citrus
palate delivers modest tangerine and nectarine flavors which lead to a mild,
pithy finish showing light citric notes.
My Review: When I smelled this wine, I was immediately aware of the citrus in this wine. It smelled somewhat bitter, but the sweet scent was slightly more powerful. My first sip of this wine was a little dry, but I found that I enjoyed the citrus flavor. This was the first wine I have tried with strong citrus flavors, and I enjoyed it.
Overall I enjoyed this wine, and I look forward to trying more wines with a citrus palate.
