Excellent! wide range drinkable purpose / Very clean; creamy vanilla citrus, with a very slight/semi sweet under layer finish; refreshing floral nose. Low acidity, easy drink with any light dish, fish, chicken, or aperitifs such as cheese, nuts, or simply by itself. Definitely one of my favorites whites for under $30.

If you are a red wine drinker and need a white to serve your guests, this is the one. Served with Salt Crusted Snapper.

hands down, the most elegant wine I've tried in the US from Sancerre. A best buy in my book

"Very crisp and clean to the pallate!" An amazingly clean SB, w/out the off-putting funk that some of them have. A lean, refreshing winner.

We have had the 2001, 2002 and 2004, and I believe that this is easily the most consistent Sauvignon Blanc that my wife and I have ever tried.

We have been trying more and more sauvignon blanc since we visited the Loire valley and this is one of the best.

I have just become sauv blanc fan. This wine is outstanding. Very crisp and clean to the pallate! A favorite citrus wine, with amazingly low acidity. Great for a relaxing and impressing frriends for the price!

This is an exceptional white wine! I have always been a Pinot Grigio fan but now I have a new favorite. Crisp, citrus and floral flavors with a slight bite and a nice lingering finish this will be one of my white wine staples.

There's a lot to love about this white: It has the weight and mouth-feel of ice-cold 2% milk-thick and creamy-it's tart, yet balanced and clean right up to the long, citrus and gravel-laden finish. 5th generation wine-making family and a tiny 32 acre vineyard ensure maximum quality year after year. On my top 5 list of whites under $30. MADE for sauteed scallops!
