- Light gold color with fast forming legs and aromas of orange blossom and apple. It's balanced and has flavours of apple with a light/medium body. Round texture with a medium finish - Very nice example of SB Graves - nice pear and apple flavors and decent finish. Matched very well with our shrimp salad dinner.

Color: Pale, a little straw/gold. Nose: A little faint, classic Sauv Blanc citrus and floral notes, faint oak. Taste: good balance of acidity and fruit. Oak, but not too much. Typical french sauv blanc profile of citrus, mineral, plus some oak. Good value at $12.

Better than I expected. Strong lemon and other citrus dominates the nose. Pears really come thru on the finish which is a bit abrupt and disapointing. But overall quite nice and very drinkable. I would go back for more.

Light and refreshing like a Bordeaux summer breeze. I can even smell the grass of the nearby pasture... Much more subtle and subdued than any New World SV-B's I've had lately. This one made much more of an impression on me last time I had it.
