A nice bright golden sunshine
color.
Aroma:
5.5 (of 7)

A mostly floral scent with
some honey and fruit added to the mix.
Taste:
8 (of 10)
Note:
A sweet, fruity taste of peaches
and green apples. It's a bit tart at the finish. It's good,
but not great. Somehow, I expected better.

16 (of 20)
Food:
Believe it or not, I had it
with bagels and lox. I know it's not a very traditional combination.
It's hard to find the right wine for lox and I'm not convinced
this is the answer. We'll have to try again...
