The appearance was pale-med gold, with an excellent long lasting bead. The bouquet was light citrus, floral and sweet. There was a sweet apple fruit start, and light acid lemon balance. This is not a very "serious" wine, but sweet and balanced with a little bit of acid. It was smooth and delicious. An excellent example of this style, and something that can be enjoyed at Christmas time, even my non-wine drinkers!

Note 1: I am not really a wine expert (just an enthusiastic amateur), so please don't take my recommendations as anything more than a rough guide to these wines. I can take no responsibility if you buy a lot of this particular wine, on my recommendation, and then regret it!

Note 2: You may not fully agree with my evaluation of these wines, as a lot of this is quite subjective. I tend to put a lot of emphasis on complexity and intense characteristic and varietal flavours and bouquet, so if you disagree you might just have different priorities.
