Clean but missing minerality; really needs more chalk slate or stone. Easy drinking and low acid.

Bae and I went to Kontakosta Vineyard when we stayed at a beautiful bed and breakfast beach house minutes within walking distance of the place.

We visited three vineyards, and this one tucked away at the very edge of a large lawn leading up to the shoreline had expansive views of the Atlantic. Just a memorable, scenic experience smacking of adventure, tranquility, and wonderful wine.

Had saved this for a year and the vintage is 2018, so it’s right at the recommended two year mark for Sauvignon Blanc.

Soon as I popped open the bottle, the fragrance just wafted into the air — strong Meyer lemons, grapefruit zest, pine resin, and a woodsy appeal.

Lemon peel open up to a flowery sweetness, pine, and a slight buttery mouthfeel.

Reading into it, I’m getting a honey quality that texturizes and coats every sip.

Cannot wait to go back to make new memories and pick up the other bottles in their lineup.

At first interesting and pleasant, then no depth and a bit boring...
