While meats like lamb roast might have you willing for a red, the rich notes of the white flowers and delicate mineral notes on the palate make this subtle, refreshing wine an excellent choice for Easter supper. Not to mention a wonderful white wine gift idea.

The tons of fresh notes of bright flavors like passion fruit and guava will have you sipping this wine all through lunch. The brightness of this wine plays very well with a whole host of foods, from fruits and salads to lighter desserts.
