Critic Review: Pale yellow-green, with star bright clarity, this Sauvignon Blanc offers fragrant aromas of gooseberry, blackcurrant leaf, boxwood, greengage plums, and a hint of tropical fruit. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, with vibrant acidity supporting bright, fragrant fruit flavors that linger on a long, clean finish.

My Review: This wine gave off notes of fruit such as grapefruit and apple. The flavors were balanced with acidity to give the wine a crisp mouth-feel. I did not taste with food.
