Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
The color is pale yellow, moving to green. Clarity is excellent. The nose is earthy with melon with notes of leather. Strong on the mid palate, the flavors over apple and melon predominate with a bit of pineapple. Good depth and character are derived from 21 days in French oak. The acidity is moderate making it a nice match for oily fish like salmon but flexible enough for chicken and pork as long as the sauce is not too rich or very spicy. This is a crisp, easy to drink wine for every day.
Food Pairing Notes
It goes well with Crab, raw oysters, scallops, shrimp, smoked seafood; white meats like chicken, pork; citrus, vinaigrettes.
