Said to be a blend of 79% Sauvignon Blanc & 21% Sémillon. Wanted a change up from our usual chardonnay or Chablis with "Walleye Wednesday" and got it here. Bit of grass & citus on the nose. Grapefruit dominated flavors accented by lime, apple, ginger and pear. Also a faint sense of spice, saline and minerality to counter balance the grapefruit. Alc 13.9% but feels more like 12.5%. Crisp but not abrasive. A sense of richness and harmony while never feeling heavy. Super fresh and fun. Good for another 4 months. Back to Chablis & chardonnay for my go to whites. Decent value at $17.

straw colored and straw-like tasting at the start. Some mid palette grapefruit and stone fruits on the finish. Acidic and likely would improve. Not really my style.

Perfectly good Napa Sauvignon Blanc. A hint reduced at first but it cedes to notes of guavas, lime, and green apricots. A few swirls brings out a salty hint of candied ginger. It's dry and crisp, with a good cut and a nice backbone.
