Wine Critic Reviews
Wine Enthusiast (92): This bottling blends the best parts of Sauv Blanc into one bottling. The nose mixes that edgy citrus and grass vibe with a wet sidewalk minerality and tropical tones of guava peel and jasmine tea. A clay-like flavor starts the palate, which then shows pineapple, plumeria and guava flavors.
