Green Dragon and I love Vouvray wines, made from the Chenin Blanc grape. The Mango Tree restaurant in Toledo is one of the few area restaurants to carry Vouvray and we would enjoy it with our meals on special occasions. It strikes the right note with us -- not too sweet, often with a slight fizz and certainly a change from Chardonnay or wimpy Pinot Grigio.
This vintage has a slight sweetness as to be expected with this off-dry wine, but a very clean taste with a bit of honey and mineral tartness. It has a long, elegant finish with a touch of lime.
It is a great food wine standing up nicely to spicy food and working well for picnics as well. Try also with sea food and mild blue cheese. The wine cost $21.99 and is recommended.
