Winery review: This Chilean Sauvignon Blanc just oozes with bright citrus flavors and a nose of herbs and grass. Stylistically, it is a cross between the herbal, grassy wines so prevalent in Sonoma County and the riper, more fruit forward products of New Zealand. Match it with pasta sauced with arugula, pine nuts, mushrooms and parmesan.
My review: Aromas of apple and vegetation, reminding me of my grandparent's apple tree, which was cool. Also citrus hints as well. Tasting revealed the citrus and apple flavors, which I expected from this somewhat acidic wine. Not my favorite thing I have tasted, but that happens sometimes.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
