Blueberries and strawberries on the nose, something richer and darker in taste. A nice sipper, maybe a little better of a food wine. — 2 years ago

9.4

On the higher end of price for a sauv blanc. Strong bell pepper aroma and has a little of it on taste as well, specifically in that crisp, fresh, green way. Otherwise very fresh and fruity. Tastes new. — 10 months ago

9.5

Was poking around a little wine shop downtown, found a display of this reading “do you like Sauvignon blanc? [Full disclosure: I do, in fact, like Sauvignon blanc.] Then you should be drinking white Bordeaux!” [Full disclosure 2: the actual signage was much more refined.] Anyway, the signage worked, I bought it and I like it a lot. Lots of the young fresh peach and apricot, with a little grassiness, of a Sb but a little richer and more complex. — 5 months ago

Tasty organic rosé; tasting notes say melon and zest and pretty right on, I would say more lime zest than lemon. Very nice, decent price point. — 3 years ago
