Have had prior vintages of this and enjoyed, but our first bottle of the 2019 was a mixed bag. Nice acidity, but the grapefruit notes were so overwhelming it was hard to distinguish much else. Hoping this is just an unusual bottle. Will see if remaining bottles are any different.

I think it is from drinking so many New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs lately this hot summer, but this was definitely a nice change of pace (ie. No cat pee or passion fruit or bell pepper). It had nice citrus notes and a crisp mineral finish. Its relative simplicity made this great with Korean fried chicken, kimchi, and side dishes which had so many crazy spicy, sweet, or salty flavors. Definitely a food wine
