Heard good things, but not sure what to think of this wine. Something a little off.

A nice blend of 90% Sauvignon Blanc, 5% Semillon and 5% Sauvignon Musque pale lemon with aromas of tropical and citrus fruits with smoky floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, melon, pear and lemon citrus notes with nice balance, crisp medium finish ending with fruit and stony mineral notes. Nice value!

Grapefruit, lemon candy, lime zest, ripe peach and graphite. Electric acidity and great minerality.

Fresh nose of the “ripe grassy” Cali SB nose I haven’t had in a long time. Riper in the mouth. Nice and crisp.

Fresh and crisp, dances on your tongue with bright fruit characteristics. Short-medium finish. Delicious

Powerfully aromatic cat piss grassiness on the nose. Would have guessed this gem hailed from New Zealand judging on smell alone. Crisp and refreshing citrus flavors dominate the palate. Smooth finish sans butter or oak.
