My review:
This
Italian wine is a white blend and has a floral and fruity aroma, with a slight touch of
citrus and melon. Although it smells fruity, this is a dry wine. It has a soft mouthfeel
and is not too acidic. It is very aromatically pleasing but the flavor is not that exciting or complex and it is a little on the bitter side. For $8, this is a decent wine
that would pair nicely with a light meal. I tasted this wine first without
food but then again later with dinner and I found it to be a nice complement to
chicken.
