I have drunk and enjoyed this at $15. Somehow today Costco had it for $7.97. Still nice. Light gold. Aromas of melon, herbs. Palate is fairly gentle, lacks that overt grassiness some SBs have; this is much more mellow. Don't wait much longer on this. 4-12-15-8: 89/100.

Served well-chilled (8/46) w/Breaded Cod Sandwiches and Coleslaw.
Clear, very Pale Yellow in the glass. Floral hints on the nose along with hints of petrol (maybe it's the 13 % Semillion). First impression is 'Tart' with some petrol hints, carrying over to the palate. Bone dry and citrus-y. Faint notes of Oak. Acidic and mineral-ly resulting in a prolonged finish that is quite pleasant. Overall didn't particularly like; may be more suitable for casual sipping on a hot afternoon, or as another said with spicy foods.

This bottle, somehow didn't impress.... On nose: faint minerals... On palate: same flavour note, with melon rind, and lemon pith, on a medium body, decent acidity....not very exciting.
