Interesting nose - having trouble placing it, but almost a sweet melon-y aroma. On the palate, clearly citrus, with strong grapefruit and lime coming across. Some oak on the finish that's not terribly well integrated. Also a tangy flavor in the finish that I'm not a huge fan of. For the price, a fine wine, but there are better SB options out there. 86-87. Aloha!

Nice and simple, clean on the nose. Citrus, hint of vanilla, slight oak. Really nice. Drinks like it smells. Taste is smooth, balanced and refreshing. Would of loved to open in warmer weather. I think it would pair nice with anything on a BBQ but also paired with Coconut,honey mango shrimp well. Will buy again.

Updated label, brilliant wine. Amazing tropical fruit with a simple touch of heat. For $10, I think I found my spring/summer wine. Drinking like a wine that costs twice as much.
