Community Tasting Notes 7

  October 14, 2023 - pale straw with greenish tinge and light body. just subtle whiffs of grass on a nose of green melon, lime, and tropical fruit hints. fresh and acidic in the mouth with a pithy minerality. as it warms, a note of guava appears in the nose and palate, the green-apple acidity is more tamed, and the texture becomes more silky and food-friendly. moderate plus length.

  April 28, 2022 - Neutral French oak. Intense nose shows green pepper, green apple, lime, gooseberry, leans towards a NZ style. Palate matches, a little less green, citrus driven, nice overall.

  April 23, 2022 - Pale yellow with a greenish tinge. Crisp apples, lemons and a bit of ginger on the nose. Beautiful round fruit with a bit of tartness coming through, lemon, grapefruit, green apples. Beautiful acidity, good balance. Long, graceful finish. Distinctly Sauvignon Blanc but only a hint of straw. Resembles the 2018 vintage of this wine and an improvement over the 2019. Drink next 2 to 3 years.

  April 9, 2022 - Opened last night. This is a fun little wine. Light yellow with a greenish tinge. Avoids the overall grassiness of too many Sauvignon Blanc‘s. Tends more toward the melon side of the spectrum. Pretty palate. Clearly present in the mouth but not overpowering. This is an excellent Sauvignon Blanc and fairly priced at Costco at $17. 5-12-16-8: 91/100.

  September 17, 2021 - This was a pleasant surprise. Fuzzy and dank for a SB. Lime peel, blue cheese, tarragon. M said "Smells like a skunk."
