Tasting Notes: The aromatics were of citrus and stone fruit. On the palate, the wine was pleasantly mouthwatering, crisp and inciting. Notes of golden delicious apple, lingering finish. Bonus points for being 12% ABV. This wine held its own with a vegetarian Shepard's pie made with French lentils and portobello mushrooms.

Wine Rating System

Our reviewers are given a topic (varietal, drinking occasion, price) six times a year and asked to select 3-5 wines that fit that criteria for review. Wine reviews include brief tasting notes, a rating and the wine’s retail price (which can vary from store to store and market to market). Unless noted otherwise, the price reflects a 750-ml. bottle. If you’re a beverage professional with a specialty in wine and you’re interested in participating in the panel, please contact managing editor Kyle Swartz at kswartz@epgmediallc.com or 203-855-8499 x2225.
