Wine Review: This golden colored Sauvignon Blanc opens with a mild honeydew melon bouquet with hints of green apple and lime. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with integrated medium acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round and easy to drink. The flavor profile is a white peach and chamomile tea blend with notes of stony minerality, and green apple. I also detected hints of ginger and grapefruit pith. The finish is dry, and its flavors linger and last for a while. I would pair this very good Sauvignon Blanc with fish and chips! Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: This wine combines the best of French winemaking know-how with modern winemaking technology. Skin-contact before pressing. Alcoholic fermentation at low temperature (14-15°). Oak ageing for 20%. Fruity nose of peach, grapefruit, bananas, and mango. The palate is well-balanced. A wonderful, delicately wooded finish. Ideal with parmesan salad or seafood linguine. Serve chilled at 12° C.
