Acid for a millisecond hen some roundness. Back to acid and then an abrupt finish with bite! Early on, a bit of peach but then lemon and grass. My mouth took a pleasing rollercoaster and then I didn't throw up!

Grass, green Apple, hay on the nose; passion fruit and lots of citrus, with a dry limestone finish. Fronts like Australian, ends like a dry French . Would buy again but drink super cold.

A little less talkative than I would have liked to. Low on the acid side, dry.

Not normally a sauv blan fan, but this was such a good deal for the price. More restrained than NZ( but what isn't?), brighter, more vibrant fruit than Sancerre, but still mineral complexity, and not as grassy as Bordeaux.... Lovely middle rxpression of the variety and great price!!

If you’re looking for a Sancerre, with perhaps a bit more body, without the price tag.
