Pours pale golden with no head. Aroma of sweet apples. Taste has sweet apple notes, prickly pear aftertaste. Palate has more of the same sickly sweet notes. Not bad.

Can from TJ's. Rounded wine glass @ home. Clear, 14k gold pour; fleeting head. Minerals, chardonnay-ish, very mellow sweet apple scent, iron, grass, low but noticable citrus. Flabby first sip, syrupy till almost the end. Low carbonation. Round sweetness with a light soda acidity at the end. Aerosol, mild lemon, good apple sweetness but missing most of the tartness. Not the sweetest mess, but still too much. Meh.
