Wine Review: Visual: Bright and
clear with light hay reflexes. Aroma: Abundant and elegant floral tones joined
by pleasant and fresh citrus tones. Flavour: Complex structure. Round and soft
with a good aftertaste. Perfect balance between alcohol and acidity.
My Review: The smell is fruity, no acidic smell.
You can smell the fresh orchards of apples, a little citrus (lemon and grapefruit),
pears and apricots. It is a sparkling white wine and is just the right amount
of sweet and right amount of dry! When tasting you can taste the citruses from
the smell plus a little lime and orange. The apple taste is like a green or
yellow delicious apple. Again, the apricot flavor is there! So yummy!!!
Extra Notes: I always go to Boudreaux’s Wine Wednesday and while I always
plan to try a new wine, I never make the commitment to it! I have to get this
wine! Out of everything I’ve ever tried in my entire wine drinking life, this
is my TOTAL favorite!
