Critic Review: "Predominately fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks with a small portion barrel fermented in older French oak, the wine is blended, bottled and released three to four months after fermentation. The nose shows fragrant gooseberry characters with underlying passionfruit and lychee aromas. Minerally, stalky notes are evident and provide addition complexity. The palate is a fine and elegant style with zesty lemon acidity and length. Varietal characters of passionfruit pulp and gooseberry dominate with hints of lemon peel in the background."
Personal Review: "The smell of this wine smelled just like grape juice: very sweet and fruity. The taste was more tangy and zesty and not fruity. I do not know what gooseberry tastes like so I could not find that flavor."
With/Without Food: I tried this without food.
