There’s no mistaking this for anything other than Sauvignon Blanc, based on its pleasantly herbal, grassy aromas. The edgy grapefruit and lime fruit notes are also right on target, with a richer layer of melon that shows the wine’s California origins. Quite refreshing, but with enough palate weight to work well with medium weight foods such as whole baked sea bass with a squeeze of lemon. A Double Gold award winner at the 2017 Toast of the Coast Wine Competition.
