A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Pure Sauvignon, this is a tropical fruit flavored wine. It's bright and fruity while also showing a dense texture of grapefruit and steely minerality. The combination makes for an intense wine that's likely to need time, so drink from 2017. Cellar Selection. Score - 94 (Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, Oct. 1, 2014) |
