| TASTING NOTE: A pretty, floral nose with lemon, grapefruit and a delightful hint of mint. The palate is quite characterful, with more typically grassy Sauvignon notes than the nose, but it doesn't lose that playful minty suggestion. A fun, light, crisp wine that will knock it out of the park as a sipper but also has the freshness and lift for seafood salads or fish main courses. (Vintages panel, Oct. 2017) |
