Star bright straw gold. Inviting nose of gooseberry and grassy tropical fruit. Juicy (medium) acidity leads the medium bodied palate of gooseberry, underripe guava, and lemongrass. Medium short finish. Loire Valley by way of California results in a wonderfully flavorful SB with just enough acidity and grass surrounding abundant fruit. French white for American tastes. Soft enough for a sipper with just enough structure for a meal. Enjoy now through next year.

Super smooth and easily drinkable. Pale straw color with citrus and melon nose. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon with a rom com and laundry.

Very good Sauv Blanc with Thai cuisine—shrimp or chicken, spicy or mild.
