Tart and zesty with a clean finish. A wallop of citrus, some lovely lingering peach fuzz, a strangely neutral nose (and I really got my nose in there, after a lot of sloshing!). A “smooth bite” if you’ll allow. It’s no Pierre Sparr but it’s a great local bottle.
Perfectly perfect sipper, especially in the summer garden under an umbrella with some mild cheese and olives. We enjoyed it with a simple orzo salad and it was lovely.
Milbrandt was at the Playhouse wine festival up here a few years ago but now their wines are hard to find. Too bad for us. Even at Canadian prices this would be a good standby.
Price: In the US, around $14.
Market Liquidity: A delicate balance.
