Wine Review: As we enter the Memorial Day weekend, I thought I would post a delightful summer wine that is quite a bargain. This white grape is indigenous to Hungary and it is pronounced Kee-rye-lay-ohn-kha. My tasting group fell in love with the 2004. The current release is the 2006. This wine opens with a wonderful floral nose. On the palate, the wine is a bit steely, a touch tart, and has nice lime flavors. The wine is nicely round and the finish is dry. This is a nice valued priced pool wine for the summer. Enjoy – Ken
