What to Expect

Sauvignon Blanc is a refreshingly crisp white wine that offers citrus and tropical fruit flavors with very aromatic notes of green chilies, grass, herbs, asparagus and gooseberries commonly contributing to the bouquet. Sauvignon Blanc is generally unaoked allowing the fruit to shine and highlighting the delicacy of the grape.

According to the Wine Spectator: Fragrant, with perfumed notes to the pea blossom, passion fruit and gooseberry flavors, which are lively and spicy, with good intensity and an almond skin finish. Drink now. 40,000 cases made. Tasting Notes - Perfectly balanced grapefruit and melon aromas and flavors are accented by lime and mango. A round mid-palate is followed by a vibrant, crisp, lingering finish.

Crisp with a light nose of lemon tarts. Soft sugars take the edge of the acidity and gives the wine a round mid palate. Nice

Fresh and zingy, with aromas of ruby grapefruit, mango and papaya and perfectly balanced citrus and tropical flavors. The texture is crisp and mouthwatering with a minerally finish.
