  Sauvignon Blanc rises over the top on the nose, backed by some subtle florals. On the palette, its rich and lovely with a little bite - but not much, overall a full, fat white. Maybe a hint of the Chenin Blanc as well. Drinks like a white Bordeaux. Well worth the $13 tariff that I paid buying it from the 'scratch and dent' table at the local. Not so much at $25 price point though. Quite good for the price paid. There are better options at retail.

  A full bodied style with ripe fruit,density but balanced with some nice mouthwatering acidity.
  Maybe a bit fat at 14.5 alc and some varietal blending additions does steal away from it’s varietal character and focus.Very difficult to desern the fruits involved in the wine, but I would say lime , and dry orange flesh melon, and underripe passion fruit. As others may like this wine for its weight and richness, I more enjoy more determined flavors I can find kinship with and enjoy.

  Touch of viognier, roussane and chenin but just little percentages. And lively and fun, a little bit fat on the mid but not too fat. No descript as it goes.
