It was a warm day, so I made a big vat of gazpacho and carved up some green olive bread for dinner. This bottle jumped into my arms as I was hunting for an appropriate wine...
Lovely wine and a great match with what I'm told was a nice batch of gazpacho.

Very pale gold in color, but a nose of honeyed limes and pears, with a slight hint of petrol. Lovely balance on the medium bodied palate, with a long, lingering, slightly sweet finish. More limes, green apples, nectarines and slate on the palate. Lovely for a 'mere' negociant wine (A-). Sadly, my last one!
