Top Notes For
Drank 12/27/20.
A selection from the Costco Wine Advent Calendar.
From 325 mL.
Nose reminiscent of New Zealand sauv blanc, with lemon, grass clippings, and a bit of citrus zest. Palate and body on the lighter side with lemon zest, green apple, and lemongrass. Quick finish. Not great, but better than most torrentes I have had, which is about 3 bottles, so dont take my word as gospel.
3/20/6/4/2 + 50 = 85 pts.

Costco Day 18: my issue isn’t with the wine (it’s good with sushi) but the carbon cost. Juice from Argentina trekked to France and then on to SoCal? Shorter supply chain please.
