On a warm summer day, sometimes all I want is a light and crisp white wine. I’m always perusing the organic shelf at my local wine shop. Lately I haven’t seen much that catches my eye; however, yesterday this bottle did the trick. It’s very easy to drink. It’s simple, flavourful but light, and tropical. It’s well worth a purchase!
