February 28, 2011 - Grass, fresh herbs, gooseberry, and grapefruit make up the enticing aromatics. Incredible crispness with strong acidic taste that truly makes this wine soar.

July 26, 2010 - 13,5% d'alcool, 100% sauvignon blanc
Œil : paille léger, forte viscosité en parois
Nez : projection d'intensité moyenne à forte, citron, lime, herbe, minéral, amande verte, frais, invitant…
Bouche : sec, ample, attaque soyeuse mais vive, acidité vive à rafraîchissante, amertume modérée, gaz carbonique résiduel agaçant, rétro végétale, métallique, minérale et citronnée, persistence moyenne.
Conclusion : nez agréable et invitant, bouche décevante et sans aucune subtilité. Produit industriel et sans intérêt. -

May 28, 2010 - Key lime, honeydew rind, asparagus, freshly cut hay and sweet clover on the nose. Lime zest, dried hay, fresh lima bean on the palate with bright acidity and medium finish. Very pleasant wine and great value.

May 5, 2010 - Lots of grapefruit but no tropical undertones to soften the taste.
