North Carolina Wine Review:
The Elkin Creek Vineyard 2008 Soft White starts off with a pure clean smell of earth and sweet grape juice along with levels of honeysuckle. This wine is not overly sweet, with a great tannin structure, though it is a little thin on the bottle. In the mouth flavors of melon and apple come through clear.
Rating: 
according to the North Carolina Wine Ratings Scale
Price: $18
Availability: Only sold by the winery
About Elkin Creek Vineyard 2008 Soft White (from the winery):
The second vintage of our immensely popular Niagara wine comes a bit less sweet than last year’s, but remains crisp and cool with balanced fruitiness This wine is ideal for a hot summer day or with spicier offerings.
