I searched for this wine to accompany our dish (stated in the recommendation) and it was stunning choice. The wine is off dry and it went well with the food. It is very concentrated, excellent straw towards golden shiny color and mainly the taste reminding dry pineapples with their tangent acidity. Unfortunately I had only one bottle of this wine:(
