Nice pineapple and tropical fruit notes with some grassiness. It has some body to it, making it perfect for cheese, salads, chicken...you name it. Very versatile and for $4.99 I'll keep it on hand for sure.

Run don't walk to TJ's for $5. Honeycomb, slightly floral, bright citrus, peach, bit of tropical, a bit of nice palate weight from the viognier. Will keep on hand for summer for sure.

Light refreshing fruity. Not too dry. For under $10 very tasty.

I liked this Steen blend with tastes of white tea and peach.
First wine from South Africa I actually thoroughly enjoyed, I'm apprehensive and relieved to say.

I will join the choir. An interesting blend from the Western Cape of South Africa. Light, clean, with citrus and grassy flavors. A fantastic find for $4.99!

Very enjoyable for a crisp, fruity white blend, with just a hint of sweet

Pretty darn good light and crisp summer table wine. Notes of honeydew melon, cantaloupe, and passion fruit.
