Last bottle and it's drinking by far the best of 6. Really enjoying it tonight. Cork came out very easily and was stained about a quarter of the way up. Medium golden color.

Light to medium golden color. Aromas of lemon, waxy yellow fruit, chalky minerality, and light herbs. Fullish body, medium acid and finish, lightly viscous, and flavors of lemon, saline, and green apple, with touches of herbs and mineral. Only moderately interesting for me, and not worth reg. price IMO, but enjoyable enough I suppose for the deal price I got.

Just really bland. None of the raciness I like in SB. The semillion seems to mute everything out. Needs a bit more acidity as well. I know this is trying to mimic white Bordeaux, but just not there.
