meganmarco's Review: This wine had a very light, grape-y flavor. It's a blend of viognier, marsanne and rousanne. It tasted great paired with light appetizers but could also be easily sipped alone. The tasting notes from Flemings where I tasted it read "Aromas of honeysuckle, jasmine and exotic fruits greet the nose, and layers of fresh sliced peaches, papaya, mango, kiwi, pear, green apple and key lime grace the palate. A brief oaking adds touches of vanilla and herb that stick around for a long, lingering finish. This wine is both bright and creamy. Marsanne supplies the rich texture and apple flavors. Rousanne gets credit for the pear and florals. Viognier adds brightness, honeysuckle and exotic flavors.

meganmarco's Review: I tried this wine at a tasting at Fleming's. The citrus flavor and acidic nature paired perfectly with a crab gazpacho. It didn't possess the heavy grassiness of some sauvignon blancs and was lighter on the palate.

meganmarco's Review: Though I'm normally not a fan of merlots, I enjoyed the ripe fruity flavors in this particular wine. I served it with Italian food, but it tasted great long after the meal was done.
