Pale in color with a nice grassy/grape fruit nose. On the mid palate the wine displays some mild grassy notes to match the nose. This is definitely a softer sauv blanc, one could even say more elegant. On the medium length finish the wine displays some nice citrus notes along with lovely acidity that grows nicely in the mouth. I would give this an 88 or so. Should be super food friendly, but nothing too powerful from a food point of view or you could easily over power the wine.
