We tried this at a tasting and enjoyed it enough to snag a bottle at fifteen big ones.
A citrusy nose with some great fresh cut grass notes.
While I don't recall the tasting at which we tried this, at first sip I see why we bought it. This has what I would describe as an ideal balance – just a bit of sugar and a whole mess of acid. Pink grapefruit – almost a grapefruit cocktail thing going – actually...this is just like the leftover syrup in canned/jarred grapefruit. There's also some limeade sort of notes. As the bottle opens and warms up a bit I get some vanilla bean and some fuzzy pineapple.
The acid lingers with more grapefruit and some grassy notes – just as it's about to completely fade away a burst of mango comes through – it's curious.
Your enjoyment on this wine will most likely be directly related to your love of grapefruit. I'm a fan of both.
