Pale straw in color with a citrus nose. On the mid palate the wine displays strong lime and grassy notes. This is definitely a fruit forward edgy sort of sauv blanc. On the medium length finish the citrus notes and crisp acidity grip onto the tongue. We paired it with a bacon and cheese quiche, and it was not a great pairing. Honestly I think I am outgrowing this type of sauv blanc. I would give it an 87-88. From the LCBO web site, check stock:
