Cap Royal
Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc

Pale lemon in color.
Light on the nose, and dry on the palate.
Light to medium in body with medium plus acidity.
Showing limes, grapefruits, green apples, herbs, earth, bitter herbs and light vegetables.
Short bitter finish.
Unbalanced, bitter and not for me.
Might have been better a couple of years ago.

Balanced & dare I say smooth! Not many occasions would I believe SavBlanc to be “smooth” usually I find them grassy, acidic but doing their cleansing thing. This was very enjoyable & exactly as described: Lemon, pear, mild asparagus green with subtle cleanse of flint & oak. We had no Chardonnay in house tonight so this became a hesitant but marvellous choice with pan seared salmon, grilled red pepper & fresh corn on the cob. Cheers🙌🏼 @delectable

Amazing Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc! Especially considering the less than $10 price.
