I am unsophisticated when it come to wine (and most everything else), but I like this wine. 
You can taste the grassiness of it as well as the citrus (especially lime peel). 
Mostly though it smells crisp and fresh - kind of like iced down summer.

When I first saw the screw cap I was like "Helloooo.... Boones Farmmmm" - then I remembered the reading about  wine cork taint and TCA.  I guess

Here's What The Experts Have to Say

You can find this one in Whole foods, and they were carrying two other labels as well.

Screw top bottles are getting more common all the time. It took me awhile to come around to the idea, but I like them now. In fact it's hard to find a bottle in Australia without the screw top.

Drink what you like! You description sounds lovely "iced down summer!" :)

The best wine is the wine that you like. I don't really care what others think. If I like, that's my choice. I have tasted very expensive wines and thought they were awful. I guess people think that because it has a high price tag on it, it is supposed to be the best.

I know nothing about wine, but that sounds very nice - especially in hot summer weather. I am confused though how it gets a grassy taste.

It's subtle - doesn't actually taste like grass, but it's got the hint of it that sits on the edge of your tongue.

I had a chocolate bar with curry the other day - that was not so subtle.... (but it was yummy!) ;-)

I think you are very sophisticated. You just aren't pretentious. I think of you as being very down to earth.

I'm not much of a wine connoisseur, but man does that sound tasty! I'll have to try & find that for sure.
