Excellent Old World Sauvignon Blanc that has the herbal grassy power and concentration of a New World wine. Pure lime focus in this mouth-watering, medium-bodied French white wine. Pair with vegetarian dishes.

Reviews and Ratings

Heather Wall - CS; WSET Advanced rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

From the home of Sauvignon Blanc comes this economical white Bordeaux. Pale lemon colour with aromatic nose. Green apple, lemon zest, flint, peach and stoney minerality. The fruit follows through on the palate and lots of zippy acidity. The length is long on an elegant citrus finish. This is a wine to buy by the case and save for summer at $14.95/bottle. Medium(-) body. XD. Perfect salad wine or simply enjoy on it's own until 2016.
Tasted: December 2014
This Sauvignon Blanc is zesty expression of the Loire Valley soil and climate with a soft yellow-gold colour and crisp finish. Pair it with fresh fish or drink as an aperitif. There's an attractive yellow-gold hue with green tints. Finishes brightly with lemon zest. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
