Bright pyrazine echoes and bright citrus dominate the nose. Enough unripe tomato skin/gooseberry to make it varietal, and bright enough to match with a dozen oysters. Very pretty wine, maybe my favorite white for about ten bucks. Great balance of minimal residual sugar (.3?) and vervet acidity. No reason to lay it down, just crack the cap and sip and nibble goat cheese, crab cakes or a steak au poivre.

KENWOOD VINEYARDS
Crafted in Sonoma County
Our Sonoma Co wines showcase the vibrant fruit & balanced complexities for which this beautiful region is famous. The county's warm days & cool evenings allow Sauvignon Blanc to be harvested at the peak of flavor. Each vineyard's grapes are picked, fermented & aged separately before being brought together as a delightful wine displaying lemongrass and honeydew notes, zesty citrus & tropical flavors, with a crisp, refreshing finish. Perfect with spring vegetable salad & herb-roasted fish.
