Aromatic & Fruity Whites
If we were forced to choose one way to describe these wines, it’d be ‘really friendly’.
They’re like that one guest who you know you can invite to any dinner party, with any group of friends, and they’ll get on with them like a house on fire. Their heart (and their flavours) are worn on their sleeve and they’re overtly delicious for it.
