Lemon juice. Citrus. 13.5% alcohol - elevate. High acid. Super clean. Meyer Lemon. High acid, faint mango/tropicla fruit. Slight leesiness. Mineral meyer lemon on the finish.
Feels like Non-pyrazinic Sauv Blanc or SA Chenin.
Final call: 2017 Sancerre. High end. $30. Actually 2015 Albarino, 13% alcohol. Wow! High acid.

Giant Wine Sale & Tasting 8/5/2017 (Cellar on Greene, Columbia, SC): A bit shy on the nose, probably served a little too chilled. Palate starts with rich honey dew melon then on to rich layered minerals, spice, and all kinds of exotic fruit like gooseberry, scuppernong, kiwi and sassafras. Typical deep streak of minerality. Mouth puckering acidity with leafy, sappy fruit on the finish.

Still refreshing after too many years in the cellar.
