Beverage Testing Institute Review: "Silvery straw color. Lively aromas and flavors of pineapple, yellow apple, melon, and Meyer lemon with a silky, bright, dry-yet fruity medium body and a tingling, complex, medium-long finish with notes of lemongrass, pear, and lemon with no tannins and no oak. Bright and crisp with layers of juicy pineapple, pear, lemongrass, and ripe melon make this perfect for repeated sipping or enhancing fresh farm to table cookery."
My Review: On the nose, I detected floral and melon components. It was a very light wine in the mouth with clear flavors of lemongrass and undetectable tannins. The finish on this wine was somewhat bitter rather than crisp. Not my favorite Sauvignon Blanc that I have tasted.
I did not have food with this wine.
