Not a typical Sauvignon Blanc citrus apple pear but not overwhelming. A decent amount of acidity. Some effervescent at the finish but has an ending that is somewhat sour or typical Sauvignon final finish.

Exceptional quality for Entre Deux Mers -- one of the best Bordeaux Blanc I have tasted. This puts New World Sauvignon Blanc to shame with its balance, body, and complexity. The flavors are not especially fruity, so it's hard to describe -- someone else suggested nutmeg, and I would add fennel on the finish. This is drinking beautifully.
My wife found this at a Costco in the SF Bay Area for just $9.99.

This is a very nice Bordeaux blanc. Pale gold, Champagne color. Strong smell of fresh-cut fruit in the nose, especially pear, apple and even banana. Very pretty in the mouth, with nice layered flavors and more than a bit of complexity. Just enough acid to give it backbone while still letting the fruit take center stage. More fruit than minerals. Yet light on its feet, even delicate. This is certainly one of the best wines of its type I have had. Hope I can get more. 4-13-17-9: 93/100.

Light, clean, and refreshing. Tropical sea breeze, lemon peel, pineapple, and salted limes with lively acidity.... nice summer wine and an excellent value!

Floral notes, with lemon peel, pomelo and a touch of honeysuckle. Fresh, refreshing, well priced and perfect for a summer seafood meal. 45% Sauvignon Blanc, 45% Semillon and 10% Muscadelle create the blend.

Still lovely to drink, with honeyed fig notes, showing some maturity at this time.

Hyvä SB-semillon blendi, rapea ja raikas suutuntuma ja pieni makeus jälkimaussa.
