Illumination Sauvignon Blanc
2011. Lychee. Pink Grapefruit. Fresh cut grass. Lemon zest finish. Long finish. Wow.

Apr 17th, 2016Loads of tropical fruit and a streak of freshly mowed grass. Heavier body for SB. Quite nice!

Sep 14th, 2015Tasted a little flat as compared to usual. I decanted for about 30 minutes, maybe that had something to do with it. It seemed to mellow down the pear and citrus flavors this wine usually shows. Tasted a bit bitter midway through the glass but showed well at the end. Will drink day two from the bottle and a little colder.
