Winery Review: "A sweet, thirst-quenching wine, it features a highly unusual combination of crispness and density of aromas. This very pleasurable low-alcohol wine has a very light fizz making it highly quaffable. Aromas of the forest dominate in the bouquet followed by surprising floral hints of wisteria and iris on the attentive nose. A perfect accompaniment to any type of dessert, although especially good
with fruit as well as plain cakes and pastries." - Winemaker

My Review: This wine was bubbly and sweet, yet refreshing. I could pick up on some floral and fruity notes - specifically apple, pear, and strawberry. This wine's aftertaste was just as good as the scents/taste and I definitely want to try pairing this with a dessert!

With/without food: I tasted this on its own without food.
