If I tasted blindly, I may have thought this was a Sauv Blanc. A little citrus, a little acid, fairly mild. Great buy at TJs for $6.99 and just grabbed another bottle.

Didn't like the 2013 vintage but this one is better. Still took a couple tastes to let it settle.

Very fruit forward, little to no oak. Great buy at Trader Joes.
