Suggested wine:
Curran Greanche Blanc 2012

This wine pairs well with salads, seafood, grilled vegetables, various cheeses, and shines as a summer apertitif.

The Grenache Blanc has notes of pear, white peach and melon, with hints of white flowers and lemon zest. It is bone dry, with a medium body, crisp acidity, and well-balanced tannins.

The combination of crispness and lushness is tantalizing.
