First time trying this Sauvignon Blanc from Fontodi and it was absolutely delightful. Bright and lithe and not at all heavy-handed, it was super-refreshing with freshly shucked oysters.

light color, straw rim, slight effervescence. on the nose gooseberries and lime, no new oak, no malo. on the palate dry with high acids, a creamy texture, low alcohol. balanced wine with ok length, very good intensity, ok complexity. drink now. solid wine that you don't want to pay full price for.

This was good, but not sure worth the money. Would have for sure picked this as Italian. Would never have picked this as a Sauvignon Blanc. Lovely light crisp mouthfeel with light apple citrus acidity and lime, apple and maybe pear or peach fruit. Very good, but too "neutral" to be better than 90 points.

Waxy, wool, green apple nose with lean flavors of grapefruit, ash and lemon. Drinking a bit better but drink any time.

High acid. Needs at least 30 minutes to open up. Try with roasted herb-chicken. 12.5% ABV.
90-91

This was a very satisfying, crisp, light Sauv Blanc. Opened to pair with baked cod and did not disappoint.

Definite Sauvignon blanc character and pleasant with a smoked salmon pasta, greens and Moroccan spice root vegetables.

A dull, boring, green tea tinged mouthful of bleh.
