Shop review: “Yellow color with green hints. Expressive wine, fresh, very aromatic. This Sauvignon Blanc displays grapefruit flavors, with hints of melon and honey. It finishes with a bracing acidity and fresh mouth feels that make it a terrific aperitif and an excellent accompaniment to virtually all seafood, especially shellfish.” (Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg, VA)

My review: Like the Vinho Verde, I also thought this wine was sour, and I could definitely taste the grapefruit flavors.  It was definitely a fresh taste that could wake you up.

I drank this without food.
