Bordeaux Sauvignon Blanc
A decent and drinkable Sauvignon Blanc, this wine is a food-friendly, if underwhelming, value. It is sort of thin, with very muted citrus tones over a light, grassy body.

Apr 12th, 2015Funky nose that took a little while to open up. Gooseberries for days on the palate. Slightly one dimensional.

Feb 18th, 2015Color of pale, warm straw. Smells like grapefruit and grass. Taste is thin. Flavors of stone, melon, and tropical fruit. Smooth finish.

Feb 10th, 2024The nose of this wine came off as citrusy and dry, and the taste that followed confirmed that scent. Upon first sip I got notes of lemon and green apple. It has a strong bite on the finish and pairs well with pasta & garlic white sauce.

Feb 8th, 2024On the nose, I get hits of citrus — like zest. (For some reason it reminds me of the lemon twist in a martini). Tbh I’ve had better and it tasted exactly how it smelled. The alcohol was kind of harsh. Would upgrade to a better.
