The color is the first thing that strikes me: gold, more like a chard. It's hard to pull anything significant out of the nose, maybe some kind of spice, and that's about it.
The taste leaves even more to be desired, albeit, there's nothing really funky going on and it's pretty smooth and easy to drink. There are no crisp finish and no citrus or tropical notes that I like to in a sauv blanc.
If you like those over the top sauv blancs like I do, steer clear of this baby.

Pleasant spice on the tongue and a lingering finish -- but an overall flatness that could use more acidity. I have a weird nose but I swear that I get faint notes of chlorine along with some very fleeting cantaloupe.
