Flavorful, crisp acidity, good weight but not heavy. Kind of a citrus flavor profile - probably on the grapefruit spectrum with some bitter phenolic notes. This was very good at fridge temp but showed more at room temp (70F) and was still refreshing. My wife and I are really enjoying going through all of these interesting Tercero whites.

Wow I would guess this is a Sauvignon Blanc. Bit hit of fresh grass on the nose. Tropical fruit. Very sweet but balanced by zesty acidity. Some white peach on the long finish

Pintag pegged this perfectly. Nice pungent floral nose with some secondary fruity vibes, kiwi is a standout. On palate, real floral and complex, candied lemon, mandarin orange, and vanilla are also standouts. I honestly do not care for the finish which is rather bitter and when you are like “wow how complex!”you are then assaulted with a big bitter finish. Big complexity means a wine to really sip and ponder. Definitely not a porch pounder. 14.2%. Some nice acidity helps to give it nice life and I think it’s pretty nicely balanced. Label recognizes a pairing with a cheese board and I think this would be very nice. Paired with pizza and really doesn’t work.

Tasted after 30 minutes of air. Fresh cut pears. Tangy acidity. Light floral. Some crushed gravel. Very nice.
