Wine Critic Review: (tastings.com - 91 points)
Pale color. Fruity, floral minerally inviting aromas of passion fruit, white grapefruit, spice poached pear, and papaya with a lean, racy, bone-dry medium body and a smooth, complex, long lemon, passion fruit, raw hazelnut, and wet stones finish with no tannins and light oak. From the tantalizing nose full of exotic fruit, citrus and minerality thru to the long, crisp finish, this soave can seamlessly go from cocktail hour thru to vibrantly flavored dishes.
My Review:
This wine smelled earthy; it almost smelled like weeds and grass to me. However, this wine didn't have a strong scent. The taste was fruity, like a hint of orange and mango. I also tasted a slight taste of apples on the finish. It was a very dry wine.
I tried this wine without food.
