Grüner Veltliner, Sauvignon Blanc
Nobilo Sauvignon Blanc 2017 Review
Bombastic, super-fresh fruit mixes grapefruit citrus with tropical, juicy pineapple, adding in a good dose of just-cut green bell pepper. Cleansing acidity brightens the flavors on the dry palate, adding in notes of lemon and lime zest, with a rocky, refreshing finish.
