Winery Review:
"Mostly Airen with a little bit of Macabeo .Greenish
gold. Subtle aromas of mint, lemon and orange, with a hint of honeysuckle. Dry,
understated and focused, offering clean citrus and melon flavors and
slow-building sweetness. Finishes dry and brisk, with an echo of lemon. As
usual, this is an outstanding value."
My Review:
The aromas of this wine were quite pleasant; everything from fresh apple to tropical fruit to honey was noticeable. The flavor was very unique because it went from normal white wine flavors of apple and subtle orange to a more herbal note of mint and lemon. It was quite crisp and refreshing, a wine that almost reminded me of sipping on a mojito. I enjoyed this wine very much and didn't try it with any food.
