Love this wine - what a value! Both soft and crisp, subtle. I’m even getting some phenolic notes which I love. More melon than grass. Good stuff.

The nose is lemon grass and oak. On the palate it is grassy with strong citrus notes. The finish is a little on the sour side but the acid is quite nice. This wine is too big for a Sauvignon blanc, in my opinion. Nothing subtle here.

Mar 13th, 2018Blond with a tinge of green in color. The nose is honeysuckle and grass. Tart citrus notes start on the palate with grass, minerals and oak pushing through at the middle. The finish is lemon grass with sizzling acid. Overall the wine seems overly oaky, out of balance and harsh to me. Tasting a light white should not be a jarring experience.

Tart, tastes like pear, lime, and minerals. Very acidic, crisp, and dry.
