There are some unripe citrus notes in this slightly astringent white. Drink now. 15,000 cases made, 1,000 cases imported.??–KM??Region: Chile / Central Valley-Chile / Central Valley Select to Add

A good effort given the price. Although the nose is a little bland, the wine is clean and shows hints of pear and sweet grapefruit. The palate is wet and not overly concentrated, so things flow easily as it delivers tepid lime and citrus flavors. A lightweight made for limited-thought quaffing, which is exactly what you should expect for eight bucks.——M.S.(3/1/2009)—— 85

Citrus and passion fruit are the main aromas, and the palate is purely tropical and citric, with zesty flavors and a very good mouthfeel. This is not an expensive or serious wine; it’s meant to be chilled and killed, and along the way it offers true Sauvignon Blanc characteristics and pure, tasty flavors.——M.S.(7/1/2008)—— 87

Slightly sweaty and prickly, but those are true Sauvignon characteristics and with time they settle to reveal orange and tangerine flavors and even more citrus on the finish. Not the most detailed wine, but at $5.99 it is what it is.——M.S.(7/1/2006)—— 84

Neutral, with a moderate juicy character. Tastes of nondescript citrus, while the finishing notes veer toward orange and tangerine. Imported by Laird & Company. ——M.S.(12/15/2005)—— 83
