MollyDooker McLaren Vale, Australia (The Violinist) 2016 Verdelho





MollyDooker McLaren Vale (The Violinist) 2016 Verdelho, $18.69-$21.99, 90 points, poured a deep glossy gold color.
Beautifully perfumed white blossoms and stark alcohol wedded in a tumult of feminine/masculine lover's quarrel, but subtle hints of tropical fruit gave reprieve.
Near full-bodied with fair-plus acidity managed to make meaningful the conflicted aromas translated onto the palate marked by mango and dried guava flavors.
Finished long and spicy with a hot 15.5% alcohol and a kiss of dragon fruit.
Paired well with my sautéed Maritime Halibut.
