Stephen Tanzer Review: (90 points) Bright orange-pink. Lively, mineral-tinged aromas of fresh red berries, orange peel and honeysuckle with a hint of anise building in the glass. Dry and nervy in the mouth, offering vibrant strawberry and orange pith flavors and a suggestion of rose pastille. The floral element comes back on the finish, which lingers with very good spicy persistence.
My Review: Beautiful light orange color that I haven't seen in many wines. Strong, refreshing bouquet of orange peel and berries. Taste is similar to the scent of orange peel and berries with a slight acidic bite in the finish that I enjoy tasting in wines.
Food: I did not taste this with food.
