Pale lemon with aromas of tropical fruit, citrus and grassy notes. On the palate peach, melon and lime citrus flavors with a touch of herb spice. Well balanced with vivid acidity and mineral notes on the long finish.

I hope everyone had a great weekend? It was beautiful here in the Chicagoland area and it looks like fall is fast approaching. Tonight i have opened the 2019 McBride Sisters Collection Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, New Zealand.

On the nose there is peach, lime, grapefruit, nectarine, white flowers and minerality.

On the palate there is lime, nectarine, white peach, grapefruit, herbs, white flowers, lemongrass and a nice minerality.

This wine is medium bodied that has a clean fresh mouthfeel and medium + acidity that leads into a long crisp citrus finish. Lets all have a great week and look forward to a wonderful new weekend ahead. Please be healthy and safe. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂

Color of really light tea. Nose of nice tropical fruits including grapefruit, citrus, pineapple, and mango, plus intense vanilla, and a bit spice. Taste follows the nose with addition of ample acidity, a tiny bit of sweetness, clean and refreshing. Aftertaste shows similar clean features, a bit warmth, and just a bit too light. Nice on par.

Pretty. Pretty. Pretty good for a find at TJ. Lots of stone fruits - nectarine and peach. And a little bit of orange.
