Good and dry, with crisp acidity and a rich streak of citrus fruits suggesting pineapples and limes. Floral notes of honeysuckle add to the impression of richness. The wine also is fairly strong in gooseberries, with that tart, pungent, earthy taste.

Very light in color and, alas, pleasing flavors, this 100% Sauvignon Blanc from the Langtry Estate’s organically farmed Lillie VIneyard begins with guava and coconut, very tropical, but gives in too easily to a not quite ideal level of sweetness and a finish that can only be described, unhappily, as bitter.
