Clear, pale lemon-gold appearance. Clean, medium-plus intensity grapefruit nose with mineral notes. Dry with just a hint of residual sweetness; high acidity, light body, and intense tropical fruit, apple, and pear, with some floral qualities. Good length. 13.0% alcohol. Very good, particularly at the price: recommended. $24 at Crosstown. See Spy Valley Wine; see also producer’s notes on this vintage.
