Wine Review: This almost clear colored Sauvignon Blanc finished in 3rd place in our recent blind tasting. This wine opens with an attractive flowery and honeydew melon like bouquet with notes of ripe banana as well. On the palate, this light bodied wine is very nicely balanced with mineral infused green apple flavors. The panel detected some lime flavors as well. The finish is dry and refreshing. The panel found this wine to be very food friendly and would pair it with chicken picatta. Enjoy – KWGTP
Winemaker Notes: Displays a brilliantly light greenish straw color with an inviting array of aromas including crenshaw melon, lemon, pineapple, and lychee nut, framed in a background of fresh-cut grass, coconut, and floral nuances. Flavors of citrus, melon, pineapple, mineral, and lemongrass are supported by good viscosity and a crisp finish. Ideal for pairing with oysters.
