Shop/Wine Critic: A crisp and fruity blend featuring 20% of the herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc, 50% creamy Loin de l’Oeil and notes of fresh apple and crisp pear, plus a touch of herb from the 30% Mauzac. It has a bright feel, with a hint of mineral on the finish.
My Review: Upon smelling the wine I was able to retrieve notes of green apples and pears. However, when I tasted it it was very acidic, I expected this wine to be very floral and light, which is exactly what it was.
Food: This wine was not consumed with food.
