Aromas of grape flowers, apple and pear combine with flavors of ripe apricot and peach to produce a sleek, intense dry wine with a long, refreshing finish. This wine is delicious as an aperitif, ideal with oysters, seafood and white meats, but partners equally well with spicy dishes and fried foods. Versatile is the word!
