Shop/wine critic/winery review: "This Grenache Blanc is exquisitely sculpted with sharp acids and pinpointed minerals, and offers orange, melon, and vanilla-honey flavors. A delight to drink, at a great price."
My review: This was a really nice, almost colorless white wine. On the nose, it had an obvious green apple scent with hints of lime and lemon peel. On the palate, I tasted strong acidity which was tempered with some honey. The apple taste was there from the beginning to finish, but it didn't linger. This wine overall was very crisp and clean, a little dry too. I did not have this wine with any food, but I think it would pair well with seafood dishes or salty chips.
