Winery Review:

Pale straw-yellow color with brilliant reflections. Delicately fruity bouquet, with outstanding finesse and marked hints of almond blossom and peaches. Elegant, soft, and well-structured fruit on the palate, with remarkable freshness and a clean, persistent aftertaste.
-Vintage Cellar

My review:
Smell - The smell at first was just sweet, which was because of the heavy fruit flavor. I smelled peaches a hint of citrus. Overall the aroma was really light. 

Taste -At first, the wine was significantly tart. It gave my mouth this pinching feeling, similar to a tannic feeling but different. Even though the smell was fruity, I didn't get much of a fruit flavor from the taste. I did, however, get a little burn on the back end. There was also a long aftertaste.

I tasted this wine without food.
