Bonterra Sauvignon Blanc

In this wine, you'll find layers of grapefruit, gooseberry and lemongrass aromas and flavors. Intense aromas of kiwi and grassy notes define this as New World in style. Mineral notes are balanced with concentrated tropical fruit. As you drink, an integrated, almost boastful acidity gives the wines a fresh, vibrant feel. Guava and melon linger on the palate. This, you'll enjoy.
