Varietal:  Sauvignon Blanc
California, USA
13.00 USD


Rich and complex with aromas of ruby grapefruit, citrus and tropical fruit.  On the palate, the combined flavors of fresh melon fig and lime are balanced perfectly to form a crisp, mouthwatering texture and a lingering finish. (Vintage Cellar)


First impression on the nose was a lot of grassy notes with just a hint of lemon on end.  There was a very pleasant smooth melon present too.  On the palate there was an explosion of tropical fruits.  It was actually really hard to pick out one from another.  There was a tartness of a grapefruit but a smooth melon really held most of the fruit flavors for me.  A hint of acid kept the wine from being overly sweet in my opinion.  It was a very nice addition.  The wine smooth all the way through with only the slightest bit of heat at the end.
