Pale yellow. Lemon and minerals on the nose. Fairly one dimensional, does not have the signature grapefruit flavors common to New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Could do better at this price point. Day 2, no improvement. Would not purchase again or recommend.

Straw yellow color. Tropical fruit aromas. Flavors of grapefruit, lemon, lime and apple. Crisp and refreshing. Very well balanced. Rich finish with nice depth and some interesting complexity. Very well done and an excellent QPR. A wine to seek out and purchase more. 13% alcohol.

Like this one a lot. First noticed that the expected grapefruit was there but not too strong and there was a richer, sweeter fruit in there too. Taste matched the nose and it paired really well with a shrimp and garlic pasta.

Hello dependable Sauvignon Blanc.. Just what I expected and there is nothing wrong with that. Crispy fun that dares you to make it a spritzer when its 100 degrees out.

Really, really nice: Adding a fair dose of peach to the traditional grapefruit and lime flavors, with just enough grassiness to it. Was the second bottle opened after a 2006 Jermann Vintage Tunina and it actually held its own -- a nice trick at 1/5th the price! ($13 Costco.) 91.

Drank at Hollywood Bowl Sound of Music singalong. Tart and bright, great crisp white on hot summer night.
