winemaker's notes:

The 2006 Sauvignon Blanc displays classic varietal aromas, flavor and texture. Aromas of grapefruit, passion fruit, guava, and fresh herbs lead to a delightful combination of intense exotic and citrus fruit flavors across the palate. The lingering finish is bright and crisp.

I would buy this wine again

I almost gave this wine 4 stars (I think my husband would give it that) but for me it was a bit too light to merit 4 stars. It is a well balanced wine with a feathery light mouth feel and also a beautiful pale color. It is perfectly enjoyable all on it's own, without eating anything. In fact, for me, that's the main drawback of this wine, it's too light in body to even stand up to any food, except perhaps water crackers and a very mild cheese. If you like just a glass of cold, crisp white wine in the summer, in-between meals perhaps, this would be a nice choice. If you're looking for something that you could pair with an appetizer, soup or salad, I could suggest something with a little more "heft".

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.

Organically grown grapes
