Tasting notes: The most present note from this wine is green apple, followed by lemon and bell pepper (Wine Folly pg 165-6). I can’t get much else from it. The wine is very acidic and dry.
My review: We drank this as soon as we got back from the store, so we added some ice to chill it fast and it made it taste noticeably better. I enjoyed this wine and I don’t think sweetness is as much of a factor of if I will like a wine or not as I thought. I give it a 6 out of 10.
Food: I drank this wine with Chick-fil-a nuggets and later with feta. It was better with feta than with chicken. I also had some bell pepper when trying to figure out if that was what I was tasting.
