Description

Beautiful layers of sweet fresh melon & guava play on the nose, with subtle whiffs of jasmine and peach blossoms. Zesty summer melon with hints of white peaches follow through on the palate, finishing with a well-balanced crisp acidity. A versatile, rewarding companion to a variety of dishes such as sushi, grilled chicken and fresh summer salads. Perfect for dishes containing that sweet and sour element. To be enjoyed with the Catch of the Day, blue skies and good company!
