Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Fresh and stylish, with aromas that stir memories of tropical breezes and fresh-cut fruit. The palate is tight and edgy, but restrained. Flavors of pear and melon are nice, and there is no citric excess or bite. Lean, fresh and tasty. Made with organic grapes.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An interesting wine that walks to the beat of its own drum. Organic wines are almost always a little unusual, and this is no different. It pours on the funky red-fruit aromas and then come herbal cherry, raspberry and plum flavors. As a whole it’s a good, well-made wine with decent feel. But hailing from La Rioja, it also has its own unfamiliar identity. Worth a try if organic wines are your thing.

Clean, light and fresh; it’s the perfect white wine for a picnic. Lithe, lucid flavors of tangerine and pink grapefruit are sweet and ripe, and worthwhile. The stony, citric tail is good, too.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Smells citric and green, with carob notes that seem artificial and forced. Very simple, creamy and candied, with faux chocolate flavors and sweet fruit. Finishes like a strawberry dipped in cheap chocolate. Modest quality at best.

I bought this bottle on a lark. Typically I read a description and decide if it fits my tastes. This one says dry, floral and bright acidity. I agree with all but dry. I didn't find this wine to be dry. It was light and airy with floral undertones.
