Appearance: Very light yellow, almost white, translucent. No legs whatsoever.
Aroma: It's all citrus to me. A hint of lemon and lime, but primarily grapefruit.
Mouthfeel: Light, rolls right off the tongue. A little bit of acidity leaves your mouth watering.
Flavors: Refreshingly acidic and citrusy. Lemons, limes, a hint of fresh cut grass, and a decent amount of grapefruit, though the grapefruit is not as prominent as it is on the nose. Just a hint of melon to cut through the acidity here.
Overall: Not my personal favorite, because I have an aversion to grapefruit. But the grapefruit is not nearly as overwhelming as the nose left me to expect. A pretty well balanced Sauv Blanc with citrus, a little tropical fruit, and just a touch of grass, so something for almost every Sauv Blanc drinker. Not one I would buy for myself, but definitely one I would take to a party or suggest to someone who likes Sauv Blanc and doesn't mind that grapefruit.
