***Please note this video was done in 2020. Nathalie & Jen have tasted it again this week and have updated the tasting notes. We noted the great freshness of green fruit, limey citrus, and ginger with a nice round weighty texture and bright acidity on the palate. This was hard to place but we decided to place this in our MELLOW section.
What do you think? Should it be in MELLOW or CRISP? Tell us!***
