Review from Cellar Tracker: Not terrible. It actually tastes better than it smells. Has a resemblance to what I remember to tasting Yellow Tail. The color is green golden. The nose has asparagus, lime, and something almost industrial. The fruit flavor is relatively free of the off flavors, and is quite lively. The green vegetable flavors almost work with the citrus, especially lime. Has a commendable, chalky dry mouth feel. Balanced, under control acidity. The finish exhibits some of diesel, or industrial flavors that begin to ruin some of the decent flavors of this wine.
My review: I could definitely taste the fruity and citrus-y flavors in it. I'd describe it as tropical tasting. The label recommended pairing it with seafood, which definitely worked; the tastes were very complementary. It was very dry and not too acidic.
