Winery Review: "Refreshing and elegant, a consistently great value in white Bordeaux that is a perfect pair with lighter foods." (gtwineproject.com)
Wine Folly: The wine folly book had honeydew, gooseberry, peach, grapefruit, and passion fruit for the sauvignon blanc. A lot of these I do not recognize the flavors of, but I picked up on some of the peach and the grapefruit.
My Review: This wine felt cidary and crisp, with a good appley flavor. Would make for a good summer wine. It was refreshing, caused a little bit of tingling on the tongue, and there were a few flavors that I cannot quite describe. Perhaps a little bit of gasoline, since there was something a little odd in the taste. Overall, not a bad wine.
