Green apple, pear, lemon & grassy notes on the nose & palate. Seemed a little heavy on the mouthfeel. Acid is there.

There isn't anything good or bad about it. Definitely a "serve really cold" wine. Pear, green apple, citrus zest and a grassy note. Acidity and alcohol are a bit at odds...Hints of stone fruit, key word being hint. Didn't expect much, didn't get much.

Lots of ripe apple, pear, and clean fruit. Acid was moderate. No oak even though the name suggests it :-(

A fantastic Fume Blanc full of slightly floral honeysuckle, lychee fruit, limes, and apples. Great with food or as a cocktail wine! I paired with spicy Thai food.
