Shop Review: "Fresh kiwifruit, green apple and almond notes bounce along, showing a flash of plantain on the friendly finish. Drink now." - Vintage Wine Cellar

My Review: This wine was kind of tart. To me, this wine both smelt and tasted like pears with a mix of green apple. At first I did not taste the kiwifruit in this wine, but now that I see that in the description, I can definitely see where they got that from. This wine was a tiny bit dry to me but it was still kind of sweet at the same time. I liked this wine, but it definitely was not my favorite. 

Food: I drank this wine at the Vintage Cellar tasting, so I was unable to pair any foods to this wine.
