Very pale lemon, bordering on straw colored, with low viscosity (12.5% ABV).  The nose has medium intensity aromas of papaya, cut grass, lime, lemon pith, wax, white and orange blossom, and white peach.  The palate is dry, with high acidity, and a light body.  Medium (+) intensity flavors echo the nose, with that bracing acidity keeping it all in check.   It goes down a treat and the finish lasts medium in length, albeit somewhat overshadowed by the cut.  It’s a really tasty wine that exudes aromas and flavors typical for the varietal.  I like it, and I especially like the price- $7, marked down from $10 at Costco, which would have been a bargain itself!  I think this wine gets 90 points and 5 stars for its tremendous value for money.  One to buy in bulk for the summer coming up.  I’m pairing it with Ceviche, salut….

Pale lemon colored, with a medium viscosity (13.5% ABV).  The nose has medium intensity aromas of cut grass, cat pee, tangerine, lemon verbena, lime zest, passion fruit, and pink grapefruit.  The palate is dry, with high acidity, and a medium (-) body.  Medium (+) intensity flavors of grapefruit, lemon, passion fruit, cut grass, and that telltale cat pee. The finish is medium (+) in length.  A consistent wine that I have really enjoyed discovering- read up on the McBride sisters sometime.  90 points from me for this $14 bottle makes it a 5 star effort to stock up on for the summer.  Drink till 2030.  Salut….

Pale lemon colored, with a watery sheen (13% ABV).  The nose has medium (+) intensity aromas of lemon verbena, cut grass, jalapeño, white blossom, papaya, grapefruit, and lime zest.  The palate is dry, with high acidity and a medium (-) body.  Medium (+) intensity flavors that mirror the nose are sharpened up by the cutting acidity.  The finish is medium (+) in length.  What a shockingly good value wine that is so consistent and tasty.  I paid $10 for this 91 point effort which makes it a 5 star bottle to buy en mass.  Drink till 2028 (would be interesting to see how it matures and what cellaring capacity it may have).  I’m pairing it with seared scallops and garlic linguine.  Salut….
