This is an excellent white Bordeaux. The nose has a bit of a buttery sent ( like a Chardonnay), but don't worry, there is no butter flavor. Flavors of lemon/ lemon grass are predominant. The lemon acidity is reduced by a creamy medium body texture giving the wine some weight. Pineapple hangs in the background (you know that chunk that doesn't really have full flavor in the batch) and blends a bit with the creamy feel holding it back. For those put off by acidic Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand... Looking for more body ( a fuller feel), than this is your wine. Excellent wine, excellent price.

Good lemongrass and tart peach, bright acid with rounded texture, a good wine for the money

A fine, even excellent, white Bordeaux, for the money. Pleasant, easy to drink.
2012 vintage from Costco 🙂
