Winery Review: Zesty and clean, with pure grapefruit and passion fruit aromas. It's charges up but perfectly balanced, with bright, focused citrus and pineapple flavors. Lemony acidity keeps the finish rolling, then throw in some chive and fresh greens and you have a spot-on Verdejo.
My Review: This white wine had a noticeably more golden colors then other wines. It also had a richer smell for a white wine - smelling mainly of nectarines but not outwardly citrusy flavors. When tasted, it was more bitter of a taste with a little heat at the beginning. This wine had a crisp taste at the end and the tartness of a grapefruit. If you are going to drink this wine, this definitely seems like a lunch time wine. This was tasted without food.
