Grass, some minerals, hint of butter. Light pleasant finish. Medium mouthfeel. Would like to try with fish.

Its just a great Wine. I'm not a big sauv blanc fan (pairings not withstanding) but this is just good. Well balanced, mineraly, veggies, herbs on the nose it's awesome.

A fuller bodied expression with fruit and aromatics. Less cutting acidity. Very nice.

Second time having this wine. A little richer this time. More tropical, but still great acidity to balance.
