Smells: Yummy! Lime, spritz, fresh. Something also a bit floral, maybe?
Tastes: Again, yum. White peach, honeydew melon, lime, herbs--I read oregano and that was TOTALLY it. Light-medium body, beautiful & round mouthfeel. Well balanced acidity--just enough to make the mouth water and give a little tingle on the cheeks. This wine drinks well on its own, but could absorb a lot of different food pairings.
Eat with: Herbed soft cheeses--especially goat cheese, hummus (all nice, oily and garlicky), proscuitto and melon, antipasti, buttery/lemony/herby grilled shrimp. I also think a bit more robust combinations could work--panko fried shrimp, sushi, fresh crab.
Buy again? Hell. Yes. It was $12.99 at our store. That's a steal for a well-done white wine as far as I'm concerned.
