Tasting notes
Bright citrus notes—lemon and lime—playfully intertwine. Dried apricot reappears, a sweet echo of summer. The zesty sherbet dances across your taste buds, refreshing and lively. This wine strikes a delicate balance: off-dry sweetness meets crisp acidity. It’s as if nature herself composed this delightful elixir—a celebration of sun, soil, and vine. Sip slowly, savor each note.
Food pairing
Ginger shrimp, infused with warmth, dances alongside steamed jasmine rice. The rich notes of shrimp gumbo find solace in crusty French bread. A wedge of creamy Brie cheese awaits crisp apple slices or a drizzle of honey. Crispy tempura shrimp beckon a soy-based dipping sauce with a hint of grated ginger. Oysters on the half shell, kissed by fresh lemon, evoke ocean breezes. And there, amidst crispy bites, the salt & pepper squid craves a zesty dip.
