Vintage Cellar Description: "Pale color. Fruity, floral minerally inviting aromas of passion fruit, white grapefruit, spice poached pear, and papaya with a lean, racy, bone-dry medium body and a smooth, complex, long lemon, passion fruit, raw hazelnut, and wet stones finish with no tannins and light oak. From the tantalizing nose full of exotic fruit, citrus and minerality thru to the long, crisp finish, this soave can seamlessly go from cocktail hour thru to vibrantly flavored dishes."

My Review: I got a strong fruity smell that reminded me of apple with a small floral component. I thought it tasted like a flowery pear with a hint of slate. I enjoyed the fruitiness of this wine and look forward to trying more of this varietal.
