Tasting - Leese Fitch Sauvignon Blanc

Name: Leese-Fitch California Cabernet Sauvignon
Variety: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Region: California
Country: USA
Year: 2010
Price: $10.95

Critic Review: A lovely Sauvignon Blanc, dry, crisply acidic and clean, with complex citrus, flower, and mineral flavors. A great value for the money - S.H., 90 points, Wine Enthusiast.

My Review: I really enjoyed this wine, so much so that I purchased a bottle and the end of the tasting. I immediately picked up a lemony-citrus aroma as described as well as a faint hint of tea that really invited the tasting. With my unrefined, raw palate I was greeted with a taste reminiscent of orange and perhaps even cherry. On top of all this, the wine was smooth and really easy to drink.

I tasted this on its own with no food.
