The wine opens with a beautiful nose; fresh and forward, with creamy, leesy, textural flavors. Spice, mint and fresh green herb is nicely matched to tart, tangy fruits—tangerine, orange, and citrus. Flavors persist into a clean, refreshing finish. Try it with spicy foods, such as gumbo, jambalaya and some curries. ——P.G.(11/1/2008)—— 89
