A fruit forward acidity followed by notes of grass, honey and lemon. Smooth middle with a bitter finish.

Drank in Adare Ireland at the end of a warm day of sightseeing. Perfect ending to the day.

Soft, not tart, good minerality, essence of honey, peaches and pears. Not much tart citrus. Not as crisp as I expect from Sauvignon Blanc but was very easy drinking and was nice with pre-Mad Max (!!!!) dinner of scallops with @Anthony Pace. Good summer sipper. #sauvignonblanc #loire #loirevalley #france #bullsofdelectable
