What we say
Round and fresh at first and then almost tannic with increasing acidity. This wine would go perfectly with shrimp, grapefruit salad and goat’s cheese.
What they say
Nose of ripe apple and notes of honey, a touch of lemon and hot stone. Round and fresh mouth with a refreshing long and tasty finish which recalls grapefruit peel.
