Winery Review: Crisp and refreshing, characterized by ripe tropical fruit accents and some herbal notes. The wine shows flavors of passion fruit, kiwi and guava over a citrus background. With its distinctive, vivid aromas and zesty acidity, Sauvignon Blanc is easy to peg in a blind tasting of dry white wines. The wine’s green, herbaceous and fruity scents are sometimes accented with musky aromas, yet its flavors are consistently fresh and bright.

My Review: If you read my introduction blog post you know I am a huge white wine fan. This particular white wine portrayed a very earthy aroma through my senses. The smells were very herb-like as well as fruity. It almost smelled like I could drink it in the Rain Forest. I tasted more passion fruit and hints of melon than any other fruit though. Personally I will purchase this wine again since it was not overly dry for and I really like passion fruit.
I did not have this wine with food.
