This wine has a straw color with a greenish tint. Its clarity is crystal. The nose hits me as New World rather than Old. There is a lot of minerality, the scent of wet sidewalk, and grapefruit. The palate brings citrus minerals to the forefront. An herbal note follows. The mouthfeel is full, yet abundant with acidity. It is a fresh wine, ready for spring salads or shrimp cocktails on the patio.

Lively and polished—nice play between stone fruit and greens with a little citrus in the mix. Really veers from dried apricot and pineapple to herbs and back that keeps me going.

I had this in Florence this summer and made a note of it. Relatively easy to find in the US, and worth every penny. Rich grapefruit and grass. Outstanding.

Nice sauvignon, very balanced, rich but not heavy, large producer but real wine

Had at Eataly. Loved the glass, and so decided to get the bottle. At $20 a bottle, an easy win.

This is my first SB from Italy. Easily drinkable.

Solid and enjoyable, slightly sweeter and not as crisp as other Sauvignon Blancs, but still good with Thanksgiving turkey.

Lots of grapefruit, medium heavy body, some mineral in the after but not as much as I thought. Would be great with garlicky foods
