I am guessing that the predominant grape variety is Sauvignon Blanc with maybe some Semillion in the blend. There are no technical notes from the producer.
In the glass the wine is bright showing a light pale yellow color. On the nose the wine has a medium intensity of peach with a hint of melon (honeydew?) and a floral note in the background. You might think tropical fruit nuances. On the palate the with is dry and medium bodied with mouth-watering acidity. There is a light intensity of either peach, pineapple or pear. The finish is clean with the white fruits lingering along with some refreshing and zesty citrus (lemon) and pineapple.
Wine & Food: Serve between 45F and 50F. Serve as an aperitif or with cheeses (possibly a type of blue cheese or goat) but it would be an experiment. Would match with a leisurely meal with fresh fish, seafood and shellfish. Another option might be grilled poutry seasoned lightly with fresh green herbs. If you used citrus slices as a light garnish (i.e. lemon) it would complement the acidity and flavors of the wine.
Approximate Retail Price: US$10.00

Right on the money, Kenn! I find the fruit reminiscent of white peach, whose flavor isn't overtly "peachy". The wine is actually and equal blend of Sauvignon and Semillon, with a touch of Muscadelle.
