Sample bottle. There is a touch of pineapple which shows through the more dominate lemon on the light-medium bodied palate. This dry white starts off showing a good amount of fresh acidity then a little oily texture gives it a bit more depth and keeps it from being too austere. The finish is a bit short but the palate makes up for that. A fun summer wine to enjoy chilled. I don't have the exact retail price of this yet, but IIRC it was pretty inexpensive (as in $10-12 USD or less) which makes it a good QPR white wine.
