Fruit aromas with citrus, grassy and oily notes. On the palate tropical fruits, medium acidity on short finish with odd aftertaste. Their non-reserve for $10 but better SB's out there in similar price range. Pass on this one, not worth it. Tasting Sample.

Light, refreshing and clean. Higher acidity than what I’m used to but hardly noticeable because of smooth taste, start to finish. Well done!!

91 Points Beverage Dynamics. Clear straw color, aromas of lemongrass, bell pepper skin and passion fruit. Tropical flavors, lime and nice grassy finish. Very nice, complex flavors.

Finally a decent Sauvignon that's not expensive and has excellent taste and a bit prickly - reminds me of my fav wines in Europe
