The Efeste Sauvage Sauvignon Blanc 2013 is an elegant, somewhat restrained, white wine that has plenty of citrus and mineral flavor. Aromas of musky gun flint, guava, lemon candy, and citrus oil are complemented by a lovely, integrated toast from French oak barrels. The palate displays flavors of yellow grapefruit, gooseberry, and tangerine, with supporting characters of verbena and crushed stone. The texture of this wine is full and balanced, with a pleasant weight and refreshing acidity. Enjoy this complex Sauvignon Blanc now and for years to come.
