Pra Soave was calling to me from the back of the fridge and I heeded that call.

Like a really well crafted pop song, this wine is effortlessly enjoyable on a superficial level, but when I stop and think about it, there’s a lot underpinning this wine’s effortless enjoyability. Chablis like on the nose - intense minerality (limestone, but also that flinty volcanic stuff), lemon curd, pear, a hint of chamomile & blanched almonds. The texture is what makes it though - crisp but with gracefulness to it. Lively acidity in perfect balance with leesy bass notes.

It's a very aromatic fruit forward wine that reminds me of a Chardonnay without the creaminess. It feels like a food wine, like it would taste better with a light cream pasta, fish, creamy cheese, or maybe even a light pizza.

Color: light yellow that reminds me of some oaked Chardonnays.

Aroma: It's a lovely fruit forward smell. It smells like a fruit basket with apples, peaches, pears, apricot. It's crisp and refreshing like a morning sunrise!

Taste: It reminds me of Chardonnay and that malolactic acid taste. There's a mineral flavor and a bitterness that reminds me of lemon rinds. When chewed, there are subtle lemon, apricot flavors. It's light body with some minerally aftertaste.

Crisp pear and green apple, you can almost taste the crunch, complimented by a core of minerality cutting through the fruit.
