Whitecliff Awosting Revisited

Well I found myself in Gardiner today so I stopped by Whitcliff Vineyards. I re-tasted their Awosting, this time out of the bottle. WOW! What a change from tasting from the tank. I think when I tasted from the tank it was to cold. Wine does go through changes from tank to bottle and in this case it was a good change.

This wine is lovely..soft, low acid with flavors of apricot and peaches with a little zesty finish. I describe it best as similar to a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. This is a great wine to pair with fish or sit on the porch watching the sunset.
