Now this is purely out of interest, it's a long way outside of my normal shopping list!
The nose has a bit of match strike, stewed apple and nashi pear, palate has a weird texture and a distinct lack of flavour which you might expect if the fruit is in fact early harvest. It's kind of round and flabby, pineapple stands out, with a touch of acidity that's a bit disjointed.
Simply it's a pretty basic wine but you'd expect it for a lighter alcohol lighter calorie option.
Critics don't rate this really, Ben Edwards via Wine Companion gave it a dismal 79pts and I'd rather not give it a rating as I don't rate it really.
Value for money, well it's like $15 out there but unless your searching for a low calorie option specifically I'd say even that's a waste of cash unfortunately.
In summary this isn't terrible or unpalatable but it definitely wouldn't be near my first choice at the bottle shop.
