Winery Review: "This
light, crisp Sauvignon Blanc has aromas of grapefruit, bell pepper, and
asparagus. On the palate, hints of floral and honey are revealed to yield a
well-balanced, refreshing wine."
My Review: Upon smelling this wine I didn't get much more than just fruity. The taste however, seemed the opposite. It offered more bitter, earthy flavors which lingered on the tongue. I would go as far to say a cat pee aftertaste. Fun fact- this is commonly seen in Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand but is well balanced, it is also world famous.
Paired with food: Not at this tasting, though I feel I needed something to cleanse my palate. Personally I thought this was an unpleasant experience.
