- Tastes of apple skin, white peach, and subtle orange are punctuated by herb, mineral, and saline notes. The wine is made without oak, and alcohol is listed at a moderate 13 percent. The wine is delightful as an aperitif and would be an excellent accompaniment to all kinds of shellfish, sushi, and white meats. My rep visited the winery last year and said “Elena is close to retired now, but her two daughters run the winery now. What Elena started, and carried on now, is amazing.”
