Tasting - Afternoon Delight
Name:Afternoon Delight - Beliveau Estate
Variety: Vidal Blanc
Region: Virginia
Country: United States
Year: 2011
Price: $20.00
Shop Review: "A lightly oaked, dry Vidal Blanc with overtones of grapefruit and vanilla. Serving un-chilled presents a well rounded, full palate and a lingering finish. Afternoon Delight is well suited for pairing with seasoned pork, roasted poultry, heavy seafood such as salmon or mussels, peppermint, venison, lamb, and saged sausage. This wine really pulls out any Summer herbs, especially rosemary! Chilled it is a bright yet complex and crisp, refreshing white. Afternoon Delight is great with strong cheeses chilled or unchilled."
My Review: This wine had a hint of oak in the nose and was quite dry. It had a strong butter taste and also a full melon flavor.
