Medium bodied yellow in the glass. Heavier tropical citrus nose. Full bodied, brisk and zippy near the end.

I found this at World Market on closeout for less than $7. Actually pleasantly surprised. I was expecting too much oak, but didnt get that at all here. Good crispness and acidity and a bit of Sauv Blanc character. Is this all Verdelho? At any rate served cold on a hot day its not a bad drink for that $7.00 price.

Very, very pale yellow. Freshly cut flower stems, with a hint of an almost petroleum jelly like aroma that I'm not too fond of. The taste is hard to pin down; almost acidic green beans. Glad to say I tried a grape I hadn't before, but I doubt I would get this specific bottle again.
