Starborough Sauvignon Blanc 2017 Review
Lean and a bit aggressive on the aromas, with pungent green bell pepper and dill. The palate is crisp and the acidity is high, making it an easy drinking wine. Just know the peppery notes are straight up prominent, no joke. Would work at the rager you're headed to.
