Merchant's description

This bright and vibrant style of white is enjoying a bit of a resurgence in popularity. It’s on the light side of things flavour-wise so could easily appeal to a wine padawan. It’s super fresh so also suits garden drinking! Think all things green and citrus but in a gentle way.
