Wine Shop Review: A
delicious and fresh blend of Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Muscat, Gewurztraminer, and
Pinot Gris. Light aromas of fresh fruit and delicate white flowers start your
journey, followed by crisp flavors of stone and citrus fruit. A well balanced
acidity on the dry finish ends this French blend beautifully.
My Review: This wine was unlike most of what I have had in
the past. It was a very experimental mix of grapes, and absolutely had a
completely different taste than any other wine that I had. First, the wine was
slightly closed upon my first smell. I got a slight honey smell, with the main
thing that I recognized being fruit loops, as if you just opened a new box. I
thought that the wine had good body, as it did a good job filling my mouth. I
got a pineapple taste on the finish which was very refreshing and it left me
wanting more. I would be more than willing to taste similar wines to this in
the future.
I did not taste this wine with food.
