winemaker's notes:

Light yellow in color, with greenish hues highlight the brilliant clarity of the 2007 vintage. A rich bouquet of gooseberry and passion fruit fill the nose while your palate is tantalized by rich, ripe tropical and herbal flavors. Intense gooseberry and passion fruit result in a vibrant burst of flavor. Excellent weight and balance on the palate linger on a crisp, refreshing finish.

"Aggressively pungent and herbal without being over the top, this is Sauvignon Blanc that screams of its origins. Grapefruit and passion fruit flavors wash easily across the palate, leaving plenty of grassy herbaceousness in their wake, and a crisp, lingering finish. Drink now." 91 Points,
Wine Enthusiast

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
Green wine
