Color/App: medium-deep yellow with numerous looong, shapely legs. Really appealing bouquet of peach, lemon, vanilla, a little lime and interestingly, a distinct petrol note I usually only encounter with Rieslings. Bright palate showing a nice, medium-bodied white with a lot of peach, tangerine, Sprite (TM), and minerality. Good, long finish and excellent acidity, I totally see the comparisons made on CT to a good Sauv Blanc. I like it and I like it even more for the ~$12 price; my only concern is that petrol note (never been a fan) -- I'd push it to 90 without it.

clear, brilliant golden yellow to glass. medium bodied, high acid, long finish. tangerine, lime and minerality with a screw top make this a show stopper.
