Winery Review: Dark Horse Sauvignon Blanc showcases flavors of lively pink grapefruit layered with fresh tropical fruits and bright citrus with a crisp, vibrant finish.

My Review: Starting off the night, this one was a decent Sauvignon Blanc based on my limited experience. On the nose, I got hints of pineapple, and the first sip was definitely boasting grapefruits. The midpalate was light but dry leading into a metallic, fruity aftertaste, and paired with the apple-smoked Gouda, this wine doubled its appeal for everyone!
