Country: France
Year: 2010
Price: $11.95
Vintage Cellar Review: "Brilliant yellow colour. The up-front nose uninhibitedly reveals fresh fruit aromas (yellow peaches) that combine with hints of white flowers. The palate develops fully with a fresh, tonic finish."
My Review:This white blend has a very light buttery color. It smells of apples and peaches. The consistency is a little thick, but the flavor isn't all that strong. There's some melon flavors, with a very light aftertaste. It smells fruitier than it tastes, but it is still sweet. This wine was decent, but it didn't really have a "wow" factor for me. The really fruity aromas led me to believe that this would be a wine filled with delicious, fruity flavors, but I was let down. The flavors were kind of bland. Overall, I did not dislike the wine, but I wouldn't have to recommend it to anyone.
Pairings: I think this wine would taste pretty good with most meals. It could be really good with a salad and salmon, or maybe some kind of chicken.
