•Shop/wine critic/winery review- Bright and racy, with a tasty note of lemon zest with a pronounced thyme, grass and chive profile framing the white peach, herb and sea salt notes. This has a nice lively finish.
•Your review- After seeing this wine poured,it has a very standard but still nonetheless good looking goldish color to it. The smell is very pronounced once the glass is brought closer to the nose. Once I gave it a swirl it came out even more, this was quite an aromatic Sauvignon Blanc in comparison to others I have tried in the past. From the description I was able to locate a lemon zest smell within the wine but the other smells were not quite as pronounced. Upon sampling it with a taste it became quite evident that it was a decent Sauvignon Blanc. The mouthfeel and overall taste of the wine was lacking in flavors for me, and was just somewhat of a letdown to me.
I did not have this wine with food.
