Winery Review: All the fruit flavors of a Green apple, slightly tart but yet just sweet enough to be very refreshing. Store in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight.

My Review: This wine was a fun one, and was a gift to me, so I figured I'd try it out for this class. On the nose, they didn't lie because it smelled like a sour apple jolly rancher. The first sip, however, brought relief, as the light sweetness of a riesling showed through. The midpalate was fruity and honeyed, and the apple brought a pleasant tartness to the aftertaste. I tried this wine without food, but honestly don't know what would have paired with it anyways.
