This wine is a light straw color. The nose is filled with notes of citrus zest, primarily lemon and grapefruit. The palate has those same flavors of lemon and grapefruit, with a hint of white pepper on the finish, which I found interesting. There are also notes of minerality on the finish, with a nice level of acidity which makes it a great wine to pair with food. This wine would be great to sip alone on a warm summer day or night. I just love Sauvignon Blanc because it is so refreshing. This wine would pair well with fresh goat cheese on a thin slice of French bread or spread on a cracker, fish and seafood. It would also pair well with appetizers that contain oysters as the main ingredient, because of the lemon notes and great acidity. In addition, it would pair well with appetizers with spinach and artichokes as the main ingredients wrapped in puff pastry.
