Nose of pears and honeydew melon. Soft and creamy on the body, from the 100% malo. In addition to the same flavors on the palate I also detect a certain minerality and a spicy acidity. An OK wine but not one that stands out from the crowd for me.

I really like this. One of my favorite wines so far, period. Light golden straw. Sweet pear and honeydew on the nose, not lacking mineral. Beautiful acid on the palate: refreshing and lively but not contradicting the sweet richness of the nose. I've scarcely experienced such a balance between creamy sweetness and appropriate acid in a white wine. Full smooth body, creamy, rich finish, bright on the tongue. No complaints at all.
