A perennial good value, the 2005 iteration of this wine is a very satisfying, if not very complex, white.
Eye: Light, bright greenish gold.
Nose: Beautifully ripe fruit melange: peach skin, apples, and watermelon, with a hint of earthy gravel.
Mouth: Gobs of fruit on entry (like fruit salad with lemon juice squeezed on top), but then tapering quickly into a crisp finish. Average concentration and weight, but still lots of fun to drink. A very nice aperitif or party wine.
Score: 87.
Cellar or drink? Drink over the next 6-8 months.
Price/store: $14 and change at Spec's on Smith.
