Winery Direct Review:
This wine boasts aromas of fresh fruits such as cherry and raspberry.
Lovely sweetness on the palate. This is
a light, elegant wine. Pair with Halibut and turnip mash, squash polenta or
spiced chicken.
My Review: Very
Crisp ! I enjoyed the aroma but felt it was more of citrus smell than berry.
However, the taste was of strawberry and had a slight vanilla aftertaste. I drank this chilled and it is very refreshing,
light and with a touch of sweetness. I
really enjoy the fizz of the bubbles in my mouth along with the berry
taste. I tasted this wine with several two
varieties of cheeses and strawberries.
It was an excellent pairing with the cheese because it cleansed my
palate between the Swiss and Gouda cheese.
It did not change the taste of the cheese, but did seem to make the
cheese creamier and less salty. It
intensified the sweetness in the strawberry that I was eating. I would definitely recommend this wine for an
appetizer course to cleanse your palate or with fruit and cheese.
Very refreshing
