Shop review: Drinking this white is like French-kissing a tropical fruit salad. Mango, banana, and papaya duel it out to a finish that leaves you breathless. Well, not really. But it's darn good.
My review: Strong burn on the nose, possibly from the alcohol. Floral and tropical fruity notes come through on the nose though. Taste of banana and light melon come through on the mid-palate. There's a soft-sweetness in the taste. There's a light alcohol-burn undertone throughout, you can feel it in the finish but it fades quickly into a smoothness.
I did not have food with this tasting.
