Trelio with the fellas again (Clovis Ca.): Blind. Screw cap freshness...unique flinty gas rag ala bord blancs...bright and fresh orchard fruits, lemon squeeze, smokey mineral funk, honeysuckle florals, wax, very short finish though. This was really nice! I guessed aged Sauv Blanc.

Note: I use a rating scale for which 85 represents a very good wine.
Drank over two days. Much much better on day 2 than day 1. I don't have much experience drinking this style of wine, but it was well-balanced with smooth fruin (not too fruity). Easy drinking as an aperitif.

Simple at its core, but nice green apple, pear, and crisp lemon on both the nose and the taste. Showed a little more Sauv Blanc like than I would have expected from an Aussie Semillon. Would have liked more floral notes, but all in all this is a decent wine for the money.
