Winery Review: Clear, medium-lemon yellow in appearance; lovely citrus and honeysuckle aromas with lemon, honeysuckle, apple and ripe yellow plum flavors. Serve chilled with angel food cake or fresh fruit and mild cheeses.

My Review: This was a very pleasant drinkable wine. On the nose, I could smell grass, peaches and honey. It smelled like a fruit soda. On the palate, it felt as if CO₂ were charged through the bottle. I loved the plum and acid in this wine. I detected lime and lemon paired with honey and flowers. I don’t know if this wine is fizzy, but it felt very crisp and clean, palate-cleansing. I really liked this wine. And $3.95? What a steal!

With food?: I tasted this wine without food.
