Bright straw. Succulent herbs, lime and lemongrass on the perfumed nose. Dry and nervy on entry, then fleshier and broader in the mid-palate, offering juicy passion fruit and tangerine flavors and a touch of bitter quinine. Shows good heft and warmth on the subtly sweet finish, which echoes the passion fruit and herb notes.

A little sweet, a little sour, this wine has candied flavors of limes, pineapples and oranges. Brisk acidity gives it balance and a cleansing finish. It will be a nice companion to Chinese and Vietnamese fare.
