This is a Sauvignon Blanc with some richness and weight thanks to some neutral barrel time, which here serves to round off the acidity a bit and allow the tropical side of the aroma and flavor spectrum to be expressed. Pear, pineapple, soft grapefruit and faint lemongrass mix well together and finish with full integration. Try it where you might want a lighter side Chardonnay for a change of pace.
