The last time that I reported on this wine was for either the 2008 or thr 2009 vintage; I might have actually reviewed the 2010 but I did have that database loss from my old webhost!

With this wine I get honeydew melons cut with a little citrus acidity that makes me think of some Meyer's lemons as well as something just a little frizzante.  The finish last a good fifteen seconds and I think that this wine would go great with a nice pasta salad or some lemon chicken.

Our Mission: The Black Winer strives to expose African Americans [and others] to wines, without the flair, stuffiness, and airs of elitism and snobbery that you get from sommeliers and high level wine enthusiasts. We believe in finding something that you like the taste of, outside of the basic brands that you have been force-fed over the years through a combination of ethnically targeted advertising, and what people in your family have historically been drinking.
