  Really enjoyable wine. While it has solid acids, it avoids being too tart of two green. A good example of what more SBs should be.

  A wonderful, wonderful wine. Pure Meyer Lemon with mint and mineral notes in the aromas and flavors. Piercing in its intensity, with 12.0% alc/vol, this is one stylish, well-made, and satisfying wine.

  Light gold to clear in color. Nose of grapefruit. Palate is grapefruit, grass and unripe orange. Finishes with tart acidity and lingering citrus notes. Good CA SB at the price ($24).

  Interesting experience with this wine. On day one pulled from the fridge and popped and poured. After the first taste I almost poured the whole bottle down the drain as the it was just too acidic, sour, citrusy, etc. Put it back in the fridge and on night 2 the acidity and citrus action had mellowed down and the wine was in balance and enjoyable. Score is based on night 2.
