Lots of aroma, especially on opening. Green apple, citrus, maybe grapefruit, apricot, something grassy that I can't identify yet, nice minerality, like wet stone esp on the finish which I like. Complexity and balance esp for a good value white. The blend of Loire sauv bl and char is really good. Nice acidity too

Beautifully crisp and refreshing for the summer with flavors of pears and lemons. No hint of sour aftertaste that you can get from some white wines. Reminiscent of a nice Sauvignon Blanc.

What's not to like. A whole lot of citrus and acid...refreshing...not overly nuanced, but effective.

Nose is gooseberry certainty. Palate is white grapefruit, tangerine, and mineral.
