so so fresh. you could easily peg this as sauvignon blanc a mile away, and yet this is miles better than most. the mouthfeel is just great, very well balanced, great acidity. floral and tropical fruit aromatics are very prolific. flavors include grapefruit, just a touch of grass. to me, the great experience here is tasting how sauvignon blanc contributes to the flavor of white bordeaux. makes me think of sauternes. (but to be clear this is totally dry). very nice finish with decent persistence. overall character reminds me of a good meursault, if that makes sense.

Typically crisp sauvignon blanc. More fruit, apple and grapefruit, began to emerge after 45 minutes or so. To be fair, I'm not a big sauv blanc fan, but I liked it more as a drank and it opened up. Probably wouldn't pay that much again for the experience.
