Is Sauvignon Blanc a good wine?
What reviewers say
“Super strong initial smell of lemon specifically but also just a general grassy-citrusy smell from like a foot away even. Quite light, super crisp, agrees with being chilled very well. Pretty dry and lacking any metallic or (abrasive) mineral flavors.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
