This wine's flavors include tangerine, peach, mango, honeysuckle, and rose. I could taste the tangerine, peach, and mango, but didn't really taste the honeysuckle or rose. It definitely had a mostly citrus taste.
My Review: I really liked this wine because I thought that it had a citrus-y flavor without the acidity. It had a medium sweetness which paired well with the floral orange blossom flavors. I thought that it also had an almost grapefruit scent, but couldn't quite taste it. It was rich and medium-bodied with very little tannic component which is something that I like. I thought it was very easy to drink and did not need any foods to balance the flavor.
