Review:
Butter, mineral/slate aromas definitely do not forewarn of the sweet flavours to follow. Off-dry style with creamy peach, lime notes. Quite nice, pleasant to drink if you like white wines on the sweeter side. Needed a bit more time to chill prior to opening (look for an update later in an hour or so). Will be having it with masala-fried whiting fish.

Turns out this wine was purchased by my parents at Scheid Vineyards in Monterey when they were in California in January. =) It was a good choice on their part.
ReplyDeleteHad a spicy finish last night after being further chilled. Tonight, this wine has mellowed, but is still off-dry and quite tasty. Definitely recommended, if you can find it. ;)
