Wine Reviews

White asparagus, gooseberries and a hint of green beans. Fresh and crisp palate with an elegant expression of green stone fruit and citrus.

A medium-bodied white with aromas of lime zest, pomelo pith, green apple and nettles. Tangy and fresh on the palate with bright, green-citrus and flinty notes to close.

Grown at hillside vineyards nine miles from the coast, this is a generously textured sauvignon with clean lime-custard flavors and ripe honeydew melon scents. The flavors open as the wine’s power develops with air, yielding scents of apple blossoms and fresh pistachio.

This Chilean Sauvignon Blanc is a light straw color with a green tinge. The very aromatic wine fills the nose with gooseberry, fresh cut green herbs, wet slate, yellow grapefruit, and pineapple notes. On the palate it is dry, medium-minus bodied, nicely textured, and refreshing. Although even with plus acidity it lacked vibrancy. There are flavors of grapefruit, passion fruit, grass, flint, and a hint of green apple. The finish is dry and grassy, and moderate in length. Served chilled, it would go well with garlicky grilled prawns.
