On the drier side. Nose was bright and promising, but the taste disappoints somewhat. Unless you like your sauv blancs subtle. Passion fruit. Lacks the big grass and herbs.

1 person found it helpfulOct 31st, 2021Drinking with Hanna on her deck with many other people around. Bought from Cork and Fork. Pale yellow and very light color. The nose feels soft. Tastes lemony and it is juicy. A little slate but not much. Pretty great but a little expensive, low 30s. Would definitely drink again

Oct 5th, 2021Acceptable Sauvignon Blanc, with great fruit flavor to start, but finishing with an unpleasant grassy and vegetal flavor.
