This is a well-made, fresh, dry sauvignon blanc that is well worth tasting whether you need a kosher wine or not. It offers intense flavors of gooseberry, fig, lime, apples and spice. It finishes with a lively acidity and doesn't appear to have been hurt at all by the pasteurization process that makes it mevushal (capable of being handled by gentiles without losing its kosher status).
