Bouquet, Aroma, Nose… identify it as you wish, you will find this wine has an abundance of apricot, honeydew melon and fresh spring air. The first tastes are of pink grapefruit, and more melon followed with a great lip smacking acid. The grand finale is a long mouth watering finish, and a glance at your glass to make sure it’s still half full. It’s amazing on its own, for getting the evening started, or even better with a crisp lemony Caesar salad with great big chunks of anchovy. This wine also pairs splendidly with most any fresh seafood; try it with poached halibut, a crab cocktail or vermicelli wrapped prawns.
