The aromas of herb, kiwi and pink grapefruit are light and subtle. The tart flavors show more generosity, though the concentration doesn't quite seem all there.

The aromas of herbs, pink grapefruit and guava don't seem entirely knitted together on this young wine. It's dry and fleshy in feel but doesn't have the concentration to bring it all together.

The notes of herbs and citrus are quite light. It's medium bodied and drinks just a hair off dry, thinning out toward the finish.

This well-made, pure Sauvignon Blanc seems to have a noticeable amount of residual sugar—not surprising in a high acid vintage such as 2011. Zesty, lightly grassy, spicy and stylish, it's fresh and rich on the palate, with a finishing streak of minerality.

Honeysuckle scents and ripe, fresh fruit flavors run from grapefruit on into tropical. This was fermented in Hungarian puncheons, picking up just a hint of toast along the way. Clean and quite delicious.
