Have no idea how this wine garnered a relatively high score.
There's certainly no definite correlation between appearance and concentration but in this instance there is. Pale, almost transparent yellow. Thin watery with touch cantaloupe and bitter citrus in the mouth. Nothing else worth mentioning. Cannot recommend.
Whitehaven sb is 10x the wine for minimally more money.

This pale yellow/green wine is dangerously close to looking and tasting like water. Faint melon, lemongrass and citrus aromas are followed by similar faint flavors on a freshly acidic, ultra light-bodied frame. While remaining fresh and seamlessly alcoholic (13.8%), the wine is devoid of a mid-palate and the finish is terse. Presumably grossly overcropped, this wine tastes like a decent Sauvignon Blanc that has been cut with water. If you own it, quaff it up. It is certainly not going to get better. Drink now.

Drank as part of a comparative tasting. Lean, very grassy and herbal. Not a lot of depth.
Not my favorite, but alright for the price.

Lemon and pink grapefruit with minerality with fairly strong acidity in the finish.
